I like the colors in the pink/peach block, but I wonder how they would look reversed? You used the darker center on the green, but the lighter center on the peach. That may be why the arrowhead doesn't stand out.

How about a flange of white before the floral sashing, or on both sides of the sashing. Not sure about the pink and apricot idea fine but needs a closer colour match. How come can make suggestions to others hopeless when I have my own problems?.

I had the same feeling about the peachy one, maybe I should just use the green without the sashing and sneak the peach in with a border. Making this block is a blast, I use the sew first, then cut method and everything fits perfect!

Will you post a pic of the whole quilt? Maybe it will help us see how the blocks in this border will look framing the whole quilt. thanks

My vote is for the green blocks too. What is the name of that block pattern? Is it paper pieced? I love it and will have to add that to my list of things to make!

I guess it is just me but I am not crazy about the darker green. My monitor might be off but to me the darker green isn't quite right. I am sure in the end whatever you do will be beautiful.

I must be the odd one. I think the block itself very cool. But, a softer, less modern block would work better with floral. Just my two cents worth. LOL!
