I think you should skip the sashing.. those blocks are great next to each other..

I like it with dashing but maybe a medium blue would be less contrast if you want that. I think the separation draws more attention to the blocks..very nice by the way:)

Definetely no sashing, but with a narrow, then a wide border.....would love to see some different choices of border color though....maybe something to enchance the brightness...

I'm having it quilted with edge to edge, fist-sized peace signs and swirly "stuff" all over! (I got the idea from someone on this board!!!)

I hope she likes it!!! Shhh . . . it's a surprise!!! :o)

The white sashing gives it a more feminine look. IMHO
