    The sashing really makes the blocks stand out. If you are new to piecing you have a real gift for this particular art form. Thank you for sharing your talent with the rest of us. Beautiful.

    It's a beauty either way. But you could always add borders on it to make it larger and they need not be the same fabric, just the same colors. You could also add corner blocks of the fabric used in the blocks to tie the border more closely if you like. It's really pretty quilt.

    OOOOh! I can barely wait to see it finished! Sashing and corner stones are perfect to make secondary patterns!
