Would you believe, no blue in my stash to go with this, so need to shop. I will take 1 each of blocks with me to see if I can match up a good blue for this. Anxious to get this UFO done. Will post finished top hopefully soon.
Thank you all so much for your help. Ideas are flowing now!!!
Oh it's so good to be a member on the quiltboard!!!!!!!!!!

I think sashing is in order, and a solid fabric, or something that reads like a solid is best. I think the extra yardage would be great for the backing. I love your blocks and sewing them on point sounds perfect!

OOOOH love those. are you going to put a sashing inbetween the blocks.? that will be a wonderful quilt.I will watch for it in my mailbox. lol

It will be gorgeous when you are finished!
Please show again???? :)

I think the additional fabric would get lost on the front...not enough contrast. It would make a great backing, though. Maybe use a dark blue and the gold in your block for borders after you decide on your layout.
