I am making a 3-d pinwheel quilt for my granddaughter. I can't decide if I should sash each block or not. Any suggestions?

The print fabric will also be the backing. Thanks!

Awesome blocks!

I really think the sashing adds something to it.

MissSandra 04-26-2011 08:42 AM

that is just soooooo pretty

terri bb 04-26-2011 08:42 AM

they both look fabulous; i think it's all up to you what you like the best...so hard to make those decisions! i think i like the one WITH the sashing the best tho if i had to pick. either way, it's going to be a beauty!

I like it with sashing. Very pretty quilt.

katier825 04-26-2011 08:44 AM

Tough call...it's pretty both ways! Do you need it to be bigger? If so, you can add the sashing. It will be beautiful whichever way you choose to finish it.

I like the pinwheels with sashing. Gives it a little something. Very pretty!!!

I love the colors. I like it with the sash. :D

I like it WITH sashing. The fabric you've chosen pulls all the pinwheel colors together. But in the end, whatever looks good to you is what counts.

donnajean 04-26-2011 08:46 AM

I like the sashing because of it's many coordinating colors.

lheartsl 04-26-2011 08:49 AM

with it.....

Leota 04-26-2011 08:50 AM

I like the sashing as it emphasis's each pinwheel

Very very pretty quilt. I personally like it sashed, but it is beautiful no matter.

brookemarie19 04-26-2011 09:01 AM

They look beautiful both ways, but I would do sashing just to add a little more to the size. I like oversized blankets myself

QazyQltr 04-26-2011 09:03 AM

with sashing :-)

laughingquilter 04-26-2011 09:08 AM

with.........although I'd take it either way!! :)

Debbiedarlin 04-26-2011 09:08 AM

Oh so amazing.... so beautiful

I like both! [some help I am! ] :lol:

SandyinZ4 04-26-2011 09:15 AM

I say go with the sashing, too. I think it helps tie in the border and it is such soft, pastel looking fabric. Please show us when it is finished. Lucky baby!

Kehoeta 04-26-2011 09:15 AM

Sash - I think it creates a better look.

Tink74 04-26-2011 09:19 AM

I love the pinwheels...I like with sashing :-)

With sashing. Tough choice because they're both beautiful!

mequilter 04-26-2011 09:33 AM

I like it with the sashing.

buckeyed 04-26-2011 09:35 AM

adorable but I think the sashing helps to make everyone of the pinwheels stand out better.

Scrap Happy 04-26-2011 09:35 AM

I like it both with or without but lean towards the sashing. It's beautiful either way!

TerryQuilter 04-26-2011 09:36 AM

Like them either way. Both layouts are great.

Quilter7x 04-26-2011 09:38 AM

I like both looks too, but think the sashing really adds to it. So my vote is FOR sashing. :thumbup:

4EVERquilt 04-26-2011 09:38 AM

Sashing!!

amma 04-26-2011 09:48 AM

Love your blocks! I really like them with the sashing, it sets them off nicely individually :D:D:D

maryb119 04-26-2011 09:52 AM

I like it with the sashing. It adds some color between the blocks. It's a beautiful quilt.

justflyingin 04-26-2011 09:55 AM

I love your colors and I like it best with the sashing which is beautiful, BTW.

Painiacs 04-26-2011 09:57 AM

With adds more beautiful color!!

Dragonfly Nana 04-26-2011 10:00 AM

Beautifully done!
I also like how the sashing brings out the colors in each pinwheel

quilttiludrop 04-26-2011 10:01 AM

I like the sashing! How sweet and perky the colors are!

jeaninmaine 04-26-2011 10:08 AM

It's great both ways but I love the sashing, it adds a little zing to it.

MDMPanther 04-26-2011 10:16 AM

My preference would be with sashing, but both ways are very pretty....I'd probably choose sashing if I wanted to make it bigger. Whatever you decide, it will be pretty!!
