    I don't have to pick the colors, because they came in a layer cake. All I had to do was arrange them the way I wanted.

    The squares definitely do look like they are floating. You did a beautiful job and the quilt has such meaning for your DIL.

    Brenda, I wish I could remember what size the sashing is, but I don't have the quilt with me, and I can't remember. I made it wider than the MSQC video because I used the whole 10" squares, not the narrow rectangles the tutorial used. I am thinking I cut them 2" somthat when the top is done, they are 1.5" wide??? What I did was made a sample block out of scraps in order to figure out the different lengths of the pieces. I'm sorry I can't be much more help!
