All twelve blocks have been completed - I can't believe how quickly they went together. Do I add sashing (plain black or something else?) What do you think?

PS Sorry for the quality of the photo - because of the building work I am very restricted to wall/floor space. I was standing on the furniture to take this shot and couldn't keep my balance very well!
These look great!! I like the way the yellow-orange flows from one square to the next, so I probably wouldn't use sashing. An easy way to test out the effect, though, is to lay a piece of black fabric on the floor, and then place the blocks a bit apart from each other so the black shows through. I really like the fabrics!
ReplyDeleteLove it Ros and I am inclined to agree with Jean. I was certainly going to suggest trying it on black fabric to gauge the effect.
ReplyDeleteHi Ros,
ReplyDeleteMake it three. I don't think you need sashing either. I love the visual connection among the yellow-orange cut-throughs. Are you thinking of any borders?
Kind regards,
Dana
Had you considered a neutral rather than black for the sashings? You know, the combination of black and white that results in gray. A neutral would make that yellow really sing.
ReplyDeleteIt's going to be a stunner Ros, and I think that black would really pull it all together,

Ohh what a lovely colourful fabricky background.
ReplyDeleteDid you intend for the orange to meet one another? It's very clever the way that happens. Yes I too place blocks on a background with space inbetween to get the effect. Be interesting to see what you choose, I think it will look nice whatever you choose.
