I really like the red! It pulls out the points on the plate. Don't care for the other choices, too blah for me!

matching your sashing would look best what ever color you chose..

Sashiko is strictly done by hand. You can try looking at some patterns in Sylvia Pippen's books, or try going to shibori.com and look in their sashiko page. Here is an example from one of my blocks

I like the red one..the poinsetta leaves...but green would be nice too....
|
OMG ... twenty pages later!
Wondering .... have you decided what you are going to do yet? Did you consider the black suggestions that were made? Plain black fabric with gold metallic thread for quilting would be perfect! |
It's been nice to be able to see the different choices with your block; each one makes such a difference. I'm going to agree with QuiltE--I still like black. Can't wait to see what you decide.

In the mean time I am putting together another dresden and will try the black on for size before I get too far ahead. The sashing will be green as well as the backing and binding so not sure about the black until I see it. Thanks for all the help.

I like the second one (red).
