    I like the blue for sashing. Don't think this quilt is ugly at all!

    I like the white, but the blue is pretty too!

    the blue softens it but the white looks good too. depends on which you like, softer or sharper.

    Love the blue, and I agree no such thing as an ugly quilt.

    I'm not gonna be any help because I like both. Maybe do half white and half blue in the sashing. Your blocks are very nice. I think the out come is gonna surprise you when it's all done.

    It is not ugly. My choice would be the blue sashing, and maybe even a darker blue. One other thing, is there any green in the floral fabric? If there is, you might want to audition green with it. Sometimes things that you would never put together, look good when they are together.

    I love the blue and yellow combination. The white background is my favorite. Looks so bright and cheerful!

    I like the blue, but as a University of Michigan grad my heart leans more towards the white so the blue and yellow are the stars! :thumbup:

    I think the quilt is far from ugly - I vote for blue sashing.
