If you can figure out a way to put it on the computer, you ought to be able to ace getting it off the drawing board and on the floor of your sewing room. Looks good, don't let your perceived "ignorance" keep you from making this wonderful quilt. My first quilt was wonderful and then it dawned on me that I didn't know what I was doing and my second quilt was so so. I finally figured out, what the heck! and have been going along pretty good since. Go for it, have fun, and show us your progress.

Don't change the sashing, it looks great. The entire piece is beautiful.

I like it! I've found that I have better luck with bias edges now that I have started starching the heck out of the fabric before I cut the triangle. I have been using Faultless in a pump spray. I don't have the bottle here in the house, but it is a black plastic bottle and is some kind of "extreme" or "max" or something to that effect. Good luck!

I think it's wonderful the way it is. I'm thinking if you
made the sashing lighter it would jump out at you. What you
have seems to blend in nicely.
