    Such happy blocks. I like the idea of the dark blue sashing.

    I absolutely LOVE your quilt! No matter who it's for! The bright colors and many different designs make for one gorgeous quilt! I think the idea of sashing is great. I know the color that I prefer, but you may want to lay some blocks out on both colors, take a picture and then decide which you prefer. Also it may impact your decision with regards to who is going to be the recipient. If it is for the soccer player, does she prefer one color to the other?

    Such a bright and happy quilt. I like the idea of a blue sashing...in the same hue that you did the rest of the quilt.

    The solids are Symphony Broadcloth from Joanns -- not very high quality, I'm afraid. I would definitely go with Konas if I were to do it again. The whites are all white-on-white fabrics from any designer I could find. (Each block uses a different white-on-white fabric)
