    I love all these brite-n-cheery colors -if it was me I'd sash them make each block stand out on their own to show off their individuality.

    I'd use sashing, personally. Your blocks are beautiful, but there's a lot going on there and I think a dark sashing would make each individual block pop, all on it's own. This is going to be beautiful when done. Please share when it's finished.

    Personally, I would sash. Either way you'll have a vibrant and fun quilt. I really like the collection of fabrics and have several of those in my stash.

    Cheers, K

    I like the blocks! I would use a dark sashing, black or navy whichever looks best. I find that dark really makes the colors pop! I also like the previous suggestion of prairie points for a border. Good luck and do post the finished product. I can't wait to see what you decide to do!

    I like it without the sashing too, but blue might look good too...... I really love the bright colors

    I'd either like it with skinny sashing (1" or maybe 1.5" finished) or none at all. And I'd love the sashing to be a tone-on-tone black and greay print....enough of a print to be interesting.
