Default Borders, Sashes

Seems like every few months I "see" something else about quilting that I didn't notice before.
Star tips, corners, symmetry, color balance... and currently it's borders and sashing.

I can see the difference between a nice quilt and a WOW quilt is often related to just how the quilter used sashing and borders. I've searched here and done a blog search to see if anyone has talked about this subject. No real luck.

I see there are some books out there and I'll order some to deepen my knowledge.

I've also been looking closely at some free quilt designs and may follow their pattern since they hit the wow nicely.

But I wondered if any of you well-traveled quilters know of any good blogs to point me to. Or, if you're a quilt blogger - please address the topic and send me the link! :-) I need some design concepts explained (not the basics, but the next level).

Thanks all! Such a wonderful obsession I've found with quilting - so many amazing dimensions to it!!!
