Hello, ladies and gents.

I was originally going to put sashing between all of my blocks. I laid it out in the kitchen floor, and somewhat like the choppy look that's left by only having sporadic navy strips.

What do you think? Leave it as-is for something different or go forward with the sashing as originally planned?

:mrgreen: I did notice the block that I have turned the wrong direction, by the way...and please forgive my poor MS Paint skills.

Thanks in advance.

I like it with the sashing.

I like the one with sashing also-it really makes your blocks and colors pop. Beautiful quilt.

I vote for the sashing too, btw very nice love it!!!!!

I agree, I like the sashing.

I like the one with sashing . Love the colors :mrgreen:

Very pretty quilt. I like the original idea best but whatever you go with, it'll look great!! :D

That's what I thought the response would be, but I was second guessing myself.

Thanks everyone.

SASHING!!!!!!!!!!!

I like it with the sashing. Your choice of colors are beautiful.

I like it - how big were your blocks before you cut them up?

Those colors are amazing. Both look good to me. It is up to you. The sashing adds a pop to the colors.

The 9 patches were 19" square, including the navy between the blocks.

I vote for sashing, makes the blocks pop more.

I love the variety in the fabric and without the sashing...

it is a dizzy quilt and one that really shows work. It is so pretty. I can't see any faults, like I said, it is dizzy-ing. And I LIKE IT

I like the sashing. It gives it more of a almost window stained glass type effect

i like it better with no sashing. more original that way. aren't you sorry you asked? get 20 quilters, get 20 opinions. :lol: :lol:

I like it with the sashing.

I thought this too! :-D :-D :-D

Sashing makes it look very busy IMHO -still pretty though. I just like no sashing better.

I like the sashing too, and agree it gives it a stained glass look. But, opinions are like, er,... NOSES! Everyone has one! LOL. It's what you like that really counts. There is no right or wrong. Good luck and be sure and post a pic of the finished product. It's looking good!

Sashing I think

btw, sashing makes it nice, like one quilter said, 'stained glass'

My vote is for sashing.

Very nice!
I vote sashing!

I like it both ways!!! No help, huh!! lol

I like it with the sashing also. Love the fabrics.

ok - what size were the original nine patch individual squares and what width are the navy blue strips. It is a great change up on the D9P. Everyone is so inspiring..........

I love it! Both ways! lol not to helpful am I

I like #1 the best

I like it both ways, no help here! Is the quilt for you and which way do you really like it? Or is it for someone else and they know about it, then ask them what they like.
Both will be GORGEOUS!!!

Either way is going to be really nice, but I love the look with the sashing the best. I know it's more work.

beautiful! i would go without sashing.

I've decided that this is going to make two separate baby quilts/wall hangings instead of the originally planned throw. One w/o the sashing. One with.

I've never kept any of my completed projects, and this probably will be no different since nothing in it even remotely matches my home decor palette. However, of the few things I've done so far, I really, really like this.

I like it with the sashing because it defines the blocks more. Beautiful quilt!

The finished single block was slightly over 5 1/4" and the finished strip was just over 1".

:) That being said, this is an easy one to adjust if you prefer different dimensions. Had the prints been a bit less bold, I would have gone with smaller navy strips, but the colors needed to be broken up a bit.

i like it choppy!

i love the fabrics! :thumbup:

me too
