Ok, now what? I cut coins 5" x 2 1/2", except for the white which is 2". I pieced 5 together. Now what do I do?

I don't know but I can't wait to what you do next

Beautiful color choices.
Now go to quilterscache.com and look up Chinese Coins. There are directions there, as well as pictures of many quilts made with this pattern. It's a free site and has many ideas. I love looking at the various quilts made from the same pattern. It will inspire you.

These are both really good ideas. What color should I use for my sashing/border?

I audition fabrics until I find something I like. I would probably use a small print with these same colors in it.

Love your coin fabrics :D:D:D
You could use several fabrics for the plain rows :D:D:D

Sashing and borders for the stacked coin quilts is a good place to get a larger print that has the colors you used as your coins. Looking forward to seeing your finished quilt.
