To celebrate my birthday today, as well as my twin sis's , I didn't get to do what I wanted to do, and that was to finish this baby donation quilt using the 10 minute block that I found here on the QB..
Once the 20 minutes that it took to figure out part of it ( ok, so I had a bad day of concentration, chalk it up to age related issues ), I was off and running...

Alas, not to my sewing machine until just a little while ago.. I am toying with the sashing between the blocks/ rows.. thinking it needs to be quite a big larger.. anyway, this was my birthday project after some hard stuff going on today. Not been the best birthday ever, but hey, 55 comes next year, and I will make up for next year on this date..

I say with sashings.

I like both but the sashing a little better :)

I like sashing. The blocks are great!!!

it needs shashing

I like the sashing, however, without the sashing you get a secondary pattern. Either way it will be a really neat quilt:)

I vote "without"

Like your blocks and you should do what you feel you want your finished quilt to look like. But I think with the sashing is nice.

I love the sashing, it lets the blocks stand out on their own.

ok I dance to a different drummer I say no sashings.

I personally like it without. I also want to add that I am so in love with your multi blue colored fabrics. So if you want you can send this quilt to me, I will gladly snuggle wonderfully with it.

Sorry to hear that your Bday was not the best. Happy Birthday and I hope that tomorrow brings tons of smiles and happiness to your heart. Thank you for sharing.

i like the sashings so the blocks look more like bow ties

I love your fabrics! And, I think without the sashings would really show off the secondary pattern so nicely. Sorry your birthday wasn't your best yet...but hopefully this birth YEAR will be fantastic! Happy Birthday!

I love ur blocks! Would love to figure out how u got them to look like that!

I like it with sashings.

I like it BOTH ways! How's that for help!

Happy Birthday!
I like it with the Sashing.

I say no sashing. Your secondary pattern will show up better without it. Plus you have good choices for the borders with those absolutely wonderful fabrics!

I like the sashing. I have my 55th in Feb. and 54 has been sortof a bummer too. So once we get to the speed limit (least here in my state.) We ott to "uptospeed" again :-) Happy b=day and lets pray for a smooth productive year.

the blue fabric was actually 2 scrub tops I found at a thrift store- i can't afford to purchase any fabric due to medical bills of my own, so when this little store has a bag sale, I get all the scrubs that they have and cut them up for scraps..

Happy Birthday!

Oh yeah...I prefer sashing. :)
