I would appreciate suggestions.

Awww...this was the first quilt I made also! I finished it with the blue sashing, green and blue borders, and blue backing. (just like the pattern!) I liked it, and felt the yellow was toned down considerably with the cool blue and green, Mine was twin sized. That brings back memories! I'd love to see what you decide!
