[ATTACH=CONFIG]466762[/ATTACH]Dog Daze pattern. The way it's written, just sew all blocks together and then they put a blue border around it. First, should I add sashing, or do an attic window? Next, opinions on fabric colors would be really helpful, because the blue they used just isn't doing it for me!

Here are a couple of examples , not the same pattern but could be adapted. I really like bright colors for whimisical patterns.

Very, very cute!!!

I would do plain sashing in a yellow, I think. Might be a little too bright, but something like this:

Maybe with a border of dog bones or something similar:

Maybe pick the border fabric first, then a coordinating sashing fabric.

Very cute!! I would sash in black which I think would make the dogs and their features pop. Then do an inside border in black to complete the frame around it. Not needed but if you found a cute puppy paw or dog bone print in browns and black for an outer border would finish it off nicely

This was pretty much my idea too love the paw print idea.

I also think attic windows would be adorable! Your puppies are cute!

i vote for attic windows and i think a light blue sashing would be really cute but whatever you decide the quilt is going to be darling!

I'm a sucker for attic windows, but sashing would be great, too. I agree that it needs something.

Adorable! I think Attic Windows too and I also like the idea of a dog-related print for the border.

I vote for sashing. I think blue would look nice
