I am with the others = move the sashing to the back and go with a tone-on-tone or solid for the front. And, wow, your curves are wonderful!
Hope you post a photo of the finished quilt! |
Wow! The sashing made all the difference . . . looks like a totally different quilt. I also agree w/michelleoc on the block placement :o I wonder if a black sashing would be worth considering. Either way, I think you have a "Winner":thumbup: Excellent workmanship!

I agree with the others above - I like the blocks - they have that 'new modern' feel to them and I think black would make them pop :)

I agree about the sashing; I don't care for this reddish pink print with the blocks, which I think are really nice. I'd choose another fabric, maybe a solid red that matches the red in the block, or maybe that gold. Or black, if those tiny dots are black.
|
Your curved seams are great, but sorry, don't care much for the fabric. But then, I'm a beginner and can only say I like or not. I don't have enough experience or abilities to suggest changes.

I love the blocks...to me just the sashing needs a change. Black, or yellow or even for extra kapow...a solid red. Please show us when you are done....I think it's a beauty waiting to surprise us.
|
I agree with others, the sashing doesn't work at all. I like your blocks and they look very nice. Find something that doesn't clash with your blocks.
|
I'm thinking I agree that you are losing a lot of the movement in your DP blocks by adding the sashing. How about sewing them together without the sashing and then adding borders to make it bigger if needed?

I think most solid or tonal would work great! Forest green, mustard, brown, cream, black, or others in the "natural" colors would look great!
