    When I saw the title I expected to see something really hideous! I'm completely baffled at your thinking it's ugly !!!
    I love it! :D

    Ironically Saturday when at the library I happen to see the book Yellow and Blue -story of 2 friend dots one yellow, one blue and when they come together they made green. It has been more than 20 years since I read the story to my kids. I can't tell if there is green in any of the prints, but what about piecing the blocks together without sashing, and putting a green boarder around. Or testing a green boarder, especilly if there is green in a print.

    I think either one would look great. But, I really like the blue!

    What color is the room that the quilt will be used in or what is the favorite color of the person getting the quilt? Use that to determine the color of shashing.
