    It's beautiful,,, I wouldn't put any sashing around the blocks, I would put a nice darker boarder around the whole quilt and then a light color of binding and then it would look really nice. Good luck with what ever you decide. Huggies, Fay

    Wow, that turned out great. I do think it needs borders though.

    I agree with at least one border and maybe 2 - it really does all depend on the final size you are looking for. I think a dark border would draw the eye to all the colors in the quilt.

    I agree, it's a gorgeous quilt that would be further enhanced by borders. The quilt is so busy, I would keep it simple. I'll be watching to see what you decide. :thumbup: :D

    It's absolutely beautiful as it is..but if you need it to grow then I would add borders. However it is absolutely beautiful as is.
