I prefer the sashing as it makes the blocks look less ordinary. Nice colour choices.
|
Love the blocks. I think the sashing really shows them off.
|
I vote for the sashing. Beautiful blocks.
|
I vote for no sashing...it is going to be beautiful quilt!
|
Think I prefer it without the sashing. If you want to use sashing, try making it larger. I think the black is quite similar in size to the colors in the blocks. Maybe it would be more dramatic if the black were larger. I often struggle at this stage of a quilt...and end up auditioning colors and sizes until I find the perfect one. Good luck! Please post when you're finished!

I vote for sashing, it seems to set the blocks off better.
|
Your really to need the sashing, sets off the blocks. Love your Bakits, was it a kit?
|
My vote is with!
|
I'm leaning toward the one with no sashing - it's a very interesting pattern and love your color choices
|
Oh absolutely with the sashing, it just pops!!!
|
Whoa, gorgeous!! I like the definition you get with the sashing!
|
either way but I really like the no sashing. really cool job.
|
Definitely sashing. Makes the blocks pop.
|
I like it with the sashing but I think it needs to be a bit wider, just to give it a little more definition.
|
with sashing...makes the colors pop
|
I love the blocks! I would say this; if you have lots of time, use the sashing. If not, just leave it like it is. I like it as it is really well.
Would you share with us/me how you cut the blocks in the shapes they are in? Mariah. |
Both are gorgeous but I like the sashing best, I think.
|
Both work but I like the way the blocks blend without the sashing - so without gets my vote
|
Like it best with the sashing...shows it off better!
|
Beautiful! I like the definition of the sashing.
|
I instantly felt I liked it with the sashing, but after looking at it for a few minutes, I like it better without the sashing. I think it will be a more interesting and unique quilt without the sashing.
|
like it without sashing. beautiful colors.
|
The sashing just gives it something more to the blocks.

I usually like sashing best, but in this case quilt becomes more interesting without sashing. Flip a coin and then be satisfied with the result. froggyintexas

If it was my quilt, I would use one of those scrappy colors as sashing and then a border of all black. This should pop your quilt which is going to be beautiful.
|
Gorgeous - I think this is just a personal taste thing. What look are you going for? I think I like the sashing...but it would be just as interesting without it.
|
I also like it with the sashing, but could get used to it without the sashing...either way it is pretty. The sashing kind of gives you breathing room as you look it, and without it, it is just kind of breathtaking...I hope you understand what I mean. The colors are gorgeous and either way would be really pretty!
|
That must have been fun to paper piece! I like the sashing as it's more dramatic in bringing out the details.
|
The shasing would be a must if it was one that I was working on. highlights the colors and pattern
|
I like it with the sashing --defines the size of each block.
|
Both are lovely but I think without sashing it could be a little busy. The black makes it pop
|
I think either way it will look great. If it were mine though, I'd skip the sashing. I like the woven look when there is no sashing.
|
I just can't decide either.
|
I like it with out the sashing.
|
Beautiful blocks, I too like the sashing.
|
Both ways are gorgeous but I personally like your sashing.
|
Those blocks are magnificent. I really think that the narrow sashing on the first picture helps to define the pattern in the blocks. Without the sashing, they get sort of muddled up together. I wouln't use a sashing wider than about 1 inch finished though. GOOD JOB!
