I agree with these ladies. Quilts are so much fun to look at and seeing all the patterns a D9P makes when put together would be fun. I also think a young girl would like it that way, not so standard a quilty look. Let us see it when it is all done - maybe with your daughter holding it. :)

Then your eye could run smoothly across the quilt instead of being "stopped" by what feels to me like artificial boundaries in the white sashing.

Just my opinion. It would be beautiful any way you do it.

My sentiment also!

The sashing looks kinda pink...or is it just the pic?
Sashing corrals the blocks. The lack of sashing allows the D9P pattern to flow across the quilt. Totally different looks, and both are attractive.
Sorry, I'm not much help huh

I like it better with the sashing. The design of the individual blocks can be seen better & I like that look.

With and without sashing gives the quilt two very different looks, as would a sashing with a color. Which one do you think you or your daughter would prefer?
