    Default If You Are Making "Stacked Coins"

    When you get to the sashing, would you go very dark, or a lighter neutral? Haven't bought the fabric yet. I am leaning toward one, but will not say which just now. What do you think?

    The light really sets the rest of the colors off.

    Thought I'd prefer the dark, until I saw the light. I definitely prefer how it sets off the colors of those rich batiks!!

    Same! I thought black was very nice until I saw the light which I prefer now. It gives it a softer touch

    The light version would show off the colors more if it was even lighter - maybe an almost-white?

    I agree with Linda in Missouri - I thought I would like the dark until I saw the lighter version. My vote goes for the light. I am looking forward to seeing what YOU decide though when it's all finished. ~smile~
