I totaly agree. Very nice so far. Add just one narrow, solid border and another color (the purple, maybe) for the binding. Looks great so far. Please post when done. :wink:

If you don't remove the double sashing, add a third sashing in black which would set each square apart. Also rotate the greens so they are not so close to each other. I think you've done a great job picking colors and look forward to seeing the finished quilt. Thanks for sharing.

I like it the way it is except like somebody already mentioned seperate the green on the right. I like the purple too. Where did you get the bird material?

Hello, and welcome from Louisiana. I think it looks good just the way it is. Great job.

I would love to see these blocks sewn together. Then I would like to see a sashing with a cornerstone. Keep going.

You are doing a great job. Follow your heart on this. I love your birds, and I think however you put it together is fine. You are learning, and will do something different next time. Love your colors, purple is fine, and all is really pretty.

I like the way you're going with it now. The blocks of color bring out the blocks with birds. I think another border between might be too much.

I'd try a thin sashing around each block with a darker color. Very nice!!
