I would love some opinions on which fabric to use as the sashing for a patriotic shadowbox quilt my son asked me to make. I can't decide between these two:

Here's an idea of how they will look, without the shadows, which will be an almost-black mottled fabric:

I think they both look cute for different reasons, and can't decide which to use. I asked my son his preference, and he left it up to me.

Your pictures really helped because looking at them on their own, I really like both. But, seeing them with the other fabric made an easy choice for me.... the dotted one. The stars look a little too busy for me when combined with the other fabrics.

this was my first thought about it also... you want the shadows to show well
