I think the quilt in my avatar is an example of what you are saying about the sashing ... remember - - as we build a quilt we are really a lot closer to the product than even the next owners will ever be. This causes us to devalue the beauty (one wrong color strip in the wrong place tends to warp our outlook, I think) ... always look at things from a distance to get a better perspective <wave>
