I look for your new postings and you were so prolific and fast and when one didn't appear one day, I was disappointed. Now, I will expect to see the finished adorable quilt tomorrow!! (LOL) Seriously, have enjoyed watching them appear and so are so fascinating and personable. I thought of bandana as sashing too in keeping with the farm theme. Congratulations. Well done.

Very wonderful blocks!! A really happy-happy quilt!! Eeyore is my fave!! He's the one who said, "thanks for noticing me". that always cracked me up and my mom too. We used to say that often to each other and would laugh each time. Finally she said i don't know who said that...but was some famous person. So i looked it up and it was Eeyore!

Very cute!!!!
Sooo many sashing ideas come to mind. I personally would use a pieced sashing. Something like a storm at sea sashing, or 3 strips with a 9 patch cornerstone. I would try to utilize the various colors of the blocks.
But I would keep the sashing on the small/narrow side. The idea being to "frame" the blocks, not to over power them. For example, if I were making the 3 strip sashing I would make each strip no more than 1" finished (probably even less).
