I'd go with the same dark blue as sashing then a narrow border of the light blue and a wide border of the dark blue again. Another obvious choice is a black marble in one wide border with the dark blue as sashing. The blue will balance the yellow without making it look sickly (or sickening).
I actually like the colors. :oops:

Joyce, I bought a batch of those blocks on sale after they discontinued them. Like you, I couldn't hack that yellow on it's own so I made other blocks using some prints and other fabrics to quiet it down a bit. Here's the result.
