    I agree with everyone this is a very pretty pattern and I feel
    like the blue would be a very good color , it has so many
    possibility's just and I'm sure it will look fabulous once you have it finished..Can't wait to see it :D :D :thumbup:

    I like the white - It is not ugly - the sashing will help, but remember you are your harshed critic

    I think your quilt is lovely. I like the blue, but the white gives it a whole new feeling.

    As you make quilts, you will find when you lay them out, as you are doing, you will often say - Yuk.. this is not pretty at all. However, when you sew it together it will take on a lovely life of its own and will become very lovely. By the time you are finished, you will really love it. Trust me and I am sure others will say the same thing, or maybe they already have, I haven't read all the responses.

    I like the white as it makes the blocks stand out more. a little applique in the borders would be a nice addition to these 4-patch blocks

    The blue looks more tailored, the white more feminine. So either way you win. I love it!

    Kinda looks like Univ of Michigan colors :) I bet a fan would to buy it . I think perhaps the dark blue or navy trim would make the interior colors pop out more. Just a thought. I am no expert at quilting but I do pretty well w/color matching. :lol:

    I like either & I agree there's no such thing as an ugly quilt. Blue & yellow work great together.
