Thanks to all for the comments...that's encouraging.
My sis, Vivian gave me a piece of black kona cotton that I needed to use for binding on another quilt....So, what did I do? I forgot that I needed the black for another project and cut it all up for the sashing to use in this one. She also gave me the bright color fabric I used for the setting squares. Nice to be able to shop in sister's stash.
