    I like it! Maybe add another border, or a binding made out of lots of the block fabrics (or both!) and finish it just the way it is. I'm sure it will be very pretty when it's quilted --- that always makes a big difference! :D

    I would be very proud of this quilt. I like the yellow. Don't even think of tearing out the yellow. Just bind it and love it.

    I haven't read all the replies, and maybe you've already solved your problem, but if I didn't like it, I'd make some binding and top stitch it on eacg piece of sashing, criss crossing itself, and then bind the whole thing in that same fabric. Since I like it, I have no suggestions on which color to use
