All 12 Boxy Star squares are finished, now I need to select the sashing. It's between a pale yellow and navy. I really liked them shoved together, but need to make it bigger than that! I was initially leaning towards the yellow, but looking at it from a distance maybe there is enough light contrast and it doesn't need more, so perhaps the dark would be better. This material is made entirely from strips I bought at a yard sale from a woman who no longer wants to quilt (imagine that!) She used to work at The Quilted Bear so her material is calico type. Always a good feeling to be able to make something with what you have on hand. And I still have a lot left over for other projects, maybe a string quilt top. That pale yellow is a sheet I pulled out of my linen closet! I think I'll just keep it with my soft cotton sheets that I use for quilt backs. I love using sheets...
