Thanks everyone for the comments and ideas - I got to thinking about mmunchkins idea, and found a very good match in my stash. I think I like this the best, I liked the idea of sashing, but it was just getting to be too much pink. I think adding the second color helps bring out the embroidery more, and gives it a bit more "elegant" look. I'll use a lace overlay on the corner stones, I've got plenty that is wide enough to do that.

I'm going to sleep on this and decide in the morning. I've got the borders made, so will have to extend them if I add sashing, but I made them with that in mind, so it will be very easy to add a bit on the ends to make them longer, and then attach the corners.

I should have taken the time to put this on the design wall. The lighting over my ironing board is great for ironing, but not so great for taking pictures! Partly because I can't get far enough away so the flash doesn't distort the colors.
