    All I see is the pink sashing. It's too much. I would try the green that is in the blocks or maybe black.

    For this kind of fun quilt I think pink is great but I would also make it narrow instead of wide so that it is not too distracting...love the quilt.

    I'm getting on this band wagon a little late and the top is probably made already, but....I really like the narrower version of the hot pink. It does suit the flashy ladies. I'm looking forward to seeing the final version.

    Like the narrower bright pink sashing. It makes the blocks jump.

    Me too. It sets the blocks apart, but doesn't overwhelm. Cute quilt.

    I like the light pink. It suits the look of the blocks and doesn't take over the stage. Just sets the stage and blends into the look of the quilt.

    I agree. I think a much narrower sashing would look better. Maybe 1".
