I designed this quilt on graph paper, and that was the easy part. I've never made this triple sashing with the 9P cornerstones till now.
My questions are: 1. What is this design called in general. Not necessarily a specific pattern name but this type of sashing. 2. If you have made this type, what did you do for the outside edges before binding? A narrow border of different fabric? No border, just binding? Ideas, photos, suggestions??? I still have to add the right and left sashings...[ATTACH=CONFIG]594343[/ATTACH] |
I sashed the edges too, then I made a solid color border of different color, included binding in that same color, as a frame for the quilt center......

That looks nice - it never occurred to me to do that with different sized blocks!
|
Great looking top! Fun design~

Geri B, do you have a photo of the one you did? |
I would refer to that as sashing strips with cornerstones made up of 9 patches.

Mine was not exactly the same as I used stars in the cornerstones. The quilt was small, so I used a wide border. Same color as the accent. Here's a link:
https://www.quiltingboard.com/pictur...t-t261089.html I've also made a couple with a friendship star in the cornerstones. Can't find a photo of that one, but did something similar. Border about the same width as the sashing, used the accent fabric. Don't know if there's an official name. I've heard it referred to as pieced sashing with <9 patch> <star> <friendship star> cornerstones. |
It looks great!

Here's one I did with this sashing. I used 9 patches on point as an outer border.

Jan in VA, I totally love the 9P on point border! I can't use it this time, the quilt is already too big. LOL But I will use it sometime, for sure.
I had to laugh at myself, before I read your comments, I was looking at the border and thinking, "I love it, I'll have to ask for the name of the pattern!" LOL |
