Sashing help needed...please
I'm trying to figure out if this orange is too bright for the sashing on this scrappy quilt.
I've only laid out a few blocks on the strips, nothing is sewn yet.
What do you think?? Going to be too bright?
Other color suggestions? Maybe navy corner stones?
Thanks

I like it as is. There will be a little less orange after you sew the seams, making it just right.
In my opinion, navy cornerstones would break up the quilt too much. The eye would be drawn to the dots of navy instead of roaming over the entire quilt. What you have now has the right amount of contrast.

I think adding the navy with the orange will be terrific. Navy and orange look great together. This orange is a very pleasing orange to look at and I am definitely not an orange fan.

The orange is a little brighter than what it looks like in the picture.
But, I think I'll go for it. I do love scrappy quilts anyway.
Now, to decide on the corner stone color. tan, navy, scrappy????
Oh, this OCD drives me crazy sometimes. I can never make a decision.
