The dog fabric is for the backing. Ribbon Off or On??????

Here's that finished product. I hope they love as much as I do .Thanks for your help

I think the ribbon is just a little too much. I like it as is.

What a great quilt! I like it simple. Last year I made a Valori Wells Quilt, Vintage Floral, from Simple Start Stunning Finish. Made with very large zinnia fabric. Most of the work is in the sashing and my colors blended to much with the blocks. I put it aside for a long time. You just gave me the solution I need to make my quilt pop! I will add some dark rick-rack or ribbon to the edges of the sashing to separate it from the blocks. Thanks!
