I am going to back this with a solid kona cotton- the same color as the block sashing. Any suggestions for binding fabric?

I'd go with a solid red or black and I would wash the fabric first to make sure there is no bleeding.

I am finally getting around to reading my messages! Ugh.. solid black would have been a great choice .. I didn't want to spend any more $ on fabric so I used some blah tan fabric I had - I wish I would have waited and got black now.

I'm sure it will be very nice with the tan. You can get amazing effects by
using unexpected colours. I wish I could do that. I tend to match everything. LOL
