Not sure Lynhut, but I think I would try a light gray for the sashing. See what it looks like

I like the stars but the white seems weak. I agree maybe the shade of gray that is in the print?

jaba 04-14-2013 08:16 PM

yup, that's what I was thinking. Think it will tie your print fabric in nicely and add a soft color. The white just doesn't give it the pop for me.

thank you all for your opinion I will go look for some grey to go with it now my 12yr old grandson would like it for his bed.

Lyn, I love your colors and quilt so far!

I sewed the binding on mine last night. There are so many mistakes with the sashing and my laziness to squaring squaring up.

I quilted each block individually with a different design each block. The front was white thread while the bobbin was black thread. Had lots of tension issues so there are spots of black in the white and vice versa.

Here are some of the blocks quilted spread out in 2 posts

Lovely...I do my own FMQing, but I am afraid to try more then stippling and loop-de-loops! I wanna be as good as you!

Tracy that is great!!!! I really really like the pink side! It's my favorite! I like the blue and black together too though!

I put a stop on mine for a little bit I have things I'm trying to finish up! Just not enough time in the day to get everything done it seems ;)

I would say gray also, however if this is the same as top one below and seeing it all laid out, I have to admit, I like it just as it is.
