    she did not ask whether or not people approved of the quilt's theme.

    i deleted some very inappropriate comments.
    i hope that will be enough to silence the sanctimonious.

    if you made a supportive comment that is no longer posted, it was removed for the purpose of flow and context. thanks for trying.

    i vote for multi-colored sashing with cornerstones.
    i'd use the frabics from the bows and flowers, along with some solids.

    i predict this quilt will be a show-stopper, conversation starter, and loved so much the remnants will someday be dragged off to college.

    I forgot to add in my comment earlier that I would go with a lime green for the sashing.
    But actually - ANY color would look great!

    I think you can go with any color sashing you want and it won't be wrong for this show stopper quilt.
