    That's what I thought. I was reading comments about sashing, but from your pic, it didn't appear to me to be sashing.

    Not yet. But so many suggested narrow sashing would nice and i think i agree. This will take me sometime i'm sure, so I have lots of time to think about it.

    i went back and looked at the 'sashing' again and thought it was an odd choice, LAUGHED OUT LOUD when i read it was the table i was looking at
    i like sashing , black, like the others said.
    i love the idea of using machine stitching on it, i will file it under' 'things i want to do'
    thanks for posting, it is lovely.

    I like your crazy blocks. I agree with a black sashing. I think it would set it off nicely.

    Beautiful. Would love to see it when it's complete. As others have mentioned, a black sashing will make all of the colors really pop. My grandmother made 10 of these quilts all out of my grandfather's ties (one for each of her 2 daughters and 8 GDs -- she had no grandsons!). She used a black satin sashing, and I think she must have used the heaviest weight batting possible as these quilts weigh a ton!
