Thanks everyone!

The 'red' is actually more of a deep salmon, it works with those hunter greens really well....

I suppose it was an ok quilt before, I tend to like things more vibrant, and a little 'more' something...that was bland...not me. Not even me enough to finish and give someone else! LOL

Wow, that's beautiful and the sashing is perfect.

Great idea - it is really "alive" now. Love it.

If I hadn't, I would have been keeping the quilt on the UFO list indefinitely, or ended up using it as a cat cover on my couch (but that would have taken a few more YEARS of shuffling along on the UFO....)

Since I had a spark of inspiration, I decided to plow right in!!

aliaslaceygreen

well, I finished the top!!!
I can cross off part one of the first of the (cough cough) pile of UFO's!

I used the old sashing to make the outside borders and found that I still had a bit of the fabrics in my stash to finish off where I was lacking. The only 'new' fabrics would be the pink sashing and the darker blue sashings around the interior parts...

Whew! :-P
