Ideas needed re sashing color
1 Attachment(s)
I want to add sashings and MAYBE cornerstones to these sampler blocks.
I am having trouble deciding the color for the sashings. I would appreciate any help you can give me. I don't have access to my stash. I want to get shopping for the sashing fabric, so that I can get started putting my blocks together. |
Really pretty blocks! My first reaction was solid black but I am having a black moment right now so that might not be the right choice. I think I would take them with and audition some fabrics to see what sets them off best. Be sure to let us see what you come up with! :)

Beautiful blocks! I'd say solid black for the sashing. Really make things pop.

I'd say Black sashing. not sure if I would add cornerstones but you could do them in white if you decide to.
|
Gorgeous blocks!!! How about black....narrow green(1/2 in finished)....black for the borders. Can't wait to see it finished! :)
|
If you use black make sure it is solid and won't appear to be part of the black in the block. Love the colors.

I was thinking black but thought it would be too much black and would make the patterns.......especially those with a lot of black on the outside edges.... 'disappear'.
As Aunt Janey said, I definitely would have to use a solid black but I'm still concerned that the black will blend into the block too much. |
I think a soft blue or soft green would look really nice and not detract from the black in the blocks.
|
definitely black
