The final month of the Blogger Girls Quilt Along.
Border and Sashing
Can’t live without these rulers now.
When Monique first showed us this quilt I was intrigued by the setting.
There are a lot of sampler style quilts on the market but the setting on this quilt really sets it apart.
I decided to use 3 different fabrics is the sashing to create a secondary design.
What looked hard was quite easy.

I told you I am not very good at choosing a controlled amount of fabrics. I guess I get bored easily.
As I worked on this each month I added more fabrics. some good choices, some not so much.
Stop by and see the color options at the other blogger girls.

Lissa,
I'm so glad you posted this early. I was going to do just a simple sashing with my blocks, but reading your post this morning really got me thinking. Although I'm not finished, I did get two rows done today with Monique's amazing setting. I wouldn't have been nearly as happy with my quilt if I'd gone with the original plan…so thank you!
I have finished my last block, but I am still cutting out fabrics for my sashing. I love this setting!
I love your pink fabrics.
