    I like the orange too-especially with that border. The only other color I would go with, if I were to change it, would be a slightly lighter green sashing-it would still go with the border, but I do like what you have!

    I really like the orange, and really do think the yellow would just blend.

    The sashing pops and comes to the forefront. I don't feel it does your baskets justice.

    I think the sashings are perfect! It really sets off the baskets :)

    Green!!! :-D LOVE your border fabric!!

    PS
    Well--I've looked and looked and I do like it just as it is too. The orange really looks great next to that gorgeous border!! :thumbup: I'd have to really really not like it to rip it out.

    Rachel, I hate to say this but I also think the orange is a bit loud. I love the border but the fabrics in the baskets are soft (and lovely!)
    I would go with a paler version of that orange. You could always save what you cut for another project, maybe??
    I also love what you did with the flowers :D
    HUGS!! Sue

    Or green, that would also be nice for sashing, as others said!
