Sashing question, as always!
I am particularly challenged when it comes to choosing fabrics for sashing and borders for scrappy quilts.
These are some blocks I made for a sampler when I first started quilting. They are handsewn as it was all I knew. Now and then, I keep adding a new one to the assortment, but for the life of me I can't find pictures of the most recent ones.

They should finish 30 cm (12"). As you can see, I try to alternate blocks with busy prints with others that have a lot of light backgroud. There are different pinks, some blue, some burgundy.
I'd like a solid sashing in an intense color, maybe burgundy, maybe true blue, maybe fuchsia. What do you think? Any suggestions? And what strip width is correct for 12" (finished) blocks? 2 1/2" so that they finish 2"?
