I love it! I'm so glad you had the perseverance to take the sashings off and put on another one!

Great work, if frustrating!

Happy Quilting,

I am planning on machine quilting it (proffesionally) because it is so big my little machine would surely die if I tried to do it at home. Maybe stippled or sometimes the quilting lady that I have used has a nice pattern already on her machine, hopefully a paisley pattern to set off the border.

I have a heap of blocks left over so I'm going to make some matching pillow slips also, but I will quilt them at home.

I'm glad you all liked it
