Some suggestions please.
 

I got off on another foot and began to make multiple copies of one block, Capital T. Somewhat scrappy as I kept running out of fabric. I want to make 18 and set them on point, I have 10 done and lots of other parts cut out, but I'm stumped on the sashing. Dark? light? rust? I'm planning on putting the corner stones in it too. I have 4 larger corners made and some darker brown sitting there.

Thanks in advance. Marcia[ATTACH=CONFIG]609766[/ATTACH]

How about something really divergent, like an electric blue?:o

I agree with Tartan. This is going to be beautiful! I sure like your colors and you are doing such a good job with your blocks!

Hummmmm. I am still learning and chasing that allusive quarter inch seam. I bought a caliper and am trying to measure. I have three settings on the placement of the needle. If I can just remember which one I'm on., Marcia

I bought a 1/4 inch foot and that has helped my 1/4" seams be 1/4 inch seams be more exact. It wasn't expensive and well worth the money. Love your blocks, but can't make suggestions for sashing and cornerstones due to color challenges. I do like the dark brown you show with the blocks, though.

I think they would look great floating with either the light center square color or the white.

Well if your quarter inch is off, then I suggest definitely sashing. I did that on a quilt some years ago because nothing matched up and my points were not that great. The sashing detracted from my inaccuracies and made the quilt bigger anyway. My sashing was a full 2 inches.
Love the colors and the repeat squares.

I think the darker brown would be awesome.

How about no sashing? The blocks create another pattern without it. Lets see how they look without it please.

How about a pale off white-tan with very soft red cornerstones.... sheeps

I like the idea of adding a vibrant blue unles you want a monotone quilt, then maybe a rich dark chocolate brown so the blocks are glowing due to contrast. Just keep playing and seeing what you like best.

Ii like the dark choice. I am also one who would use black to make the blocks pop. Just finished one this week-end with black sashing and colored corner stones and love it. Your dark brown would work well tool.

I'm not a great fan of the dark brown. I tend to see it instead of the pretty colors in the blocks and the work you have put there. How about a tone on tone tan and use either the gold or the brown for the cornerstones? I like Tartan's suggestion that cornerstones would create another design for the piece.

Dark brown with cornerstones that match the corners of the block.

If you want the sashing to stand out, go with the dark. I kind of like the colors you have in the blocks.

So the dark brown won. And that forced ??? me to go to Lolly's and shop as I did not have any more. Oh poor me having to spend time shopping in Lolly's. (For those of you not from here, Lolly's is a huge fabric store in Shipshewana.) And I found it with a little help from the owner. Look for a pic tomorrow. Marcia

[ATTACH=CONFIG]609971[/ATTACH]This is as far as it is now. Almost put together. I cut the sashing 2 1/2 inches. I took that off a pattern that was 12 inch blocks. These are 9 inch and I should have reduced the width of the sashing. But I didn't so this will be it. Plus some borders.

I think it beautiful!

good progress
