Quilt finished but not happy with it..
#1
This quilt a friend picked the fabrics I used all but the yellow which i thought was just the wrong yellow... I had thought about framing the blocks with it but it looked bad.. I am happy it is done but I am not sure why it seems to not look good to me,;( any suggestions ideas> ? I really dislike the blue color .. generally that may be it.. There is brown minki that goes on the back of this..
Help./. ??

You know how it is, you see a fabric or collection and you instantly fall in love. I bet your friend will flip when she sees your creation made from her fabric prints!
Can you give any tips on backing a quilt with Minkee? I'm so scared of that stuff. Love it, but I'm afraid to work with it.

I think it would look nice with small sashing framing the blocks.

what about yellow sashing? I thought it just broke it all up and looked odd but at the time i only had 4 blocks done.. Hmm

Even though this was not your favorite project, look at it as a learning experience - also hold your piece up to different colored walls or fabric swatches. That will help you get a better feel for the color scheme. If this is your friend's quilt let her decide where to go from here. Personally, I like it as is.
