    I like the idea of solid centers and sashing, but definitely solid centers!

    I like the light sashing and light centers. I think its gives a unity to the background. Either way it looks beautiful and I am sure it will be a great comfort!

    Love them both, but especially the first one. The squares "float" on the print background. Maybe you'll have to make three quilts. LOL

    I would go with solid centers and solid sashing. It's a bit busy otherwise.

    Solid centers and sashing; I think too busy otherwise. Pretty, but busy.

    I prefer the solid centers. The print sashing is cute-----does seem to add to the "comfort" use.

    About your print centers. Since they are the same print as the sashing, the blocks look like they have holes in them. But I do like the idea of the print solids. Do you have a print that has the same colors but only a bit of white background showing? What about a dotted print----------again not so much white showing?

    Both are so wonderfully scrappy, I think either is just fine. I guess if I HAD to choose, I would go with the solid centers.

    In the first one the blocks stand out, in the second one the centers stand out. I like it both ways. I'm like you though, if I had to pick a solid color for the sashing I would be stuck.
