I agree with everyone else. The busy print just doesn't stand out like a solid would. Love the pattern.
|
Patterned sashing seems to be fashionable lately. You go with what you want. You will be living with the quilt.

|

It fights with the pink floral. I would change it. Love the other fabrics!
|
Your sashing is competeing with your blocks. A darker color would give you the contrast you are looking for...this of course if only my HHO :-)
|
The block is beautiful but you need to make those flowers pop!!!! just get some of your stash and lay different peices stand back I found this works pretty good
|
thank you all for the advise it really helped.. i did put a solid sashing and it looks great.will post a pic soon.
again Thank you all loretta |
I"d use a med to soft pink. Will be stunning.
|
It's not called ripping it's called unsewing.
|
I love your blocks! I would agree with most and suggest a solid, medium pink color. But just to be sure to get the look you like try auditioning both pink and green. Good luck!!
|
I would go with the tone on tone first. This will be ver pretty.
|
Yes, go darker either green or pink would work. Nice blocks!!
|
Yes, I agree with all of the above. But I don't call it ripping seams, I call it "un-sewing" lol Auntie B
|
me too .A pastel green perhaps? That would be my choice .but do what you are comfortable with.
|
Maybe the brighter pink roses in the little squares, I think they will make it pop
Have a Blessed day Ellen |
I think it would look better with a plain sashing.
|
I personnally think you need a brighter sashing than you have. It does not compliment your block. Other than the color of the sashing you are doing a great job. Keep us posted on your decision. Thanks for sharing.

Take a color out of the print. (Solid) Darker. You only have two values and your lacking dark. You have light and medium. Now your need dark
