    I would go with sage green or a medium blue.

    Love the D9P block and your fabrics are just so nice! I would love to see it framed with the coral color adding just enough definition to bring it all together. Would look just as good unframed too! It'll be great either way you go! :-D :-D

    I think they would look nice framed with a cream color or one that is scarsely seen in the quilt to make it pop.

    My first reaction is not to frame them but if you do, my choice would be a soft sagey green that blends with the existing fabrics to create the restful look you want.

    If you were wanting more 'pop' I'd go with the coral.

    Any way you decide is going to be lovely!

    Very pretty. Soft green would be my choice.

    I would go with no sashing and piece them directly together.

    Oh, I love them, and what a great quilt they will make. I do think I would sash them just to calm the quilt down a bit. A king is a very large quilt and it may be a bit busy. I think any of the dominant colors would work well as a sashing, so I would go with one that blends with the colors in the room.

    I like both ways. I just did one but decided not to frame them and I am pleased with the result. Some posted one a few days ago with sashing and it looked great too. If you want a softer look, I would go with framing or sashing. I like the soft green also but I think you have to audition fabrics to decide on what looks best. I love your fabrics, you did a great job so far.

    I like it without the sashing, and the fabrics "running together."
    I did that in a little mini and I quite like it.
