    Default Sashing or No Sashing?????

    I finished the blocks for a monochromatic quilt I made from some brown and gold fabric I had but have yet to put it together because I can't decide whether to put sashing or not. I asked my friends for their opinion and they came back 50/50 so here I am, hoping you could help break the 50/50 tie. One of the ones that voted for sashing suggested a thinner sashing as an option could you tell me what you think about that too!

    Please help, I am dying to get it quilted. I made it for a very dear friend and I am anxious to give it to her.

    Have you thought of rotating the blocks on every other row? I think that would give you separation without the sashing.

    I always swim in a different creek - or backwards, or something. But I TRULY LOVE it without the sashing.

    Different strokes for different folks.
    Be warned. I am BORED.
    This could be dangerous.

    When you get cold just go stand in the corner.
    They are usually 90 degrees.

    A giraffe's coffee would be cold by the time it reached the bottom of his throat.
    Ever think about that? No? You only think about yourself??
