    What a cool name. And what a great quilt. I just stared at the different blocks for a long time.

    This is just what was in my mind for border and binding. You need to make another gorgeous one to keep!!!!

    Wow - this is just wonderful - all those colors, and such a variety of stars. One of these blocks is my avatar - I turned the block into a wall clock ....

    Gorgeous!
    Dark blue or black may be too much, perhaps something softer? (I love dark sashing normally)
    Hard to decide on a sashing colour, that's for sure!!
    Maybe the yellow?

    IMHO, I would sash in dark blue and keep with the theme of your colors rather than detract from your color scheme with black. I love the bright cheerfulness of this quilt and can see why you might have a hard time parting with it. Great job on each block. Thanks for sharing.

    I also vote for navy/dark blue instead of black.
