This is my tentative plan for how I'm going to lay out the blocks. I tried to evenly space out the blues and oranges and the lighter blocks and the darker blocks but does anyone see anything that I should consider rearranging?
And now for the really big question. Should I use gray sashing to pick up the gray in the center of each block......
Or white sashing to keep it clean and fresh.....
And as for all of my other projects this is what's going on.....
Active WIPs: 6 (Up one from last week because I officially started on the winery!)
-Going Coastal Granny Square Quilt - Blocks are done. Time for sashing!-Dollhouse Bakery - No progress
-Hooterville: Happily hand quilting in the evenings while I watch t.v. and sip wine
-Little White Dollhouse: No progress
-Vintage Valentine: Staring at it.....thinking about it.....drooling over the pile of pretty fabrics
-French Provincial Winery: Upgraded from Must Make to Active WIP because I've started buying supplies for it so there's no turning back!
Must Make: I've been wanting to make a Victory Garden quilt and I just found the perfect assortment of fabrics in my stash for it!
Back Burner WIPs: 5
Ready To Go: 19
Must Make: 10 - That number is unchanged from last week!
New Projects: NONE
Forgotten/Abandoned Projects: Didn't find any last week - Yay!
Happy Sewing,
Jenny
P.S. The prints in my quilt are from the Going Coastal Collection by Emily Herrick for Michael Miller.

The quilt is darling! I vote for the gray sashing. :)
Love it! I vote gray sashing!
GRAY GRAY GRAY!!!!! I love that fabric line too.
Grey with orange or aqua binding.
I would go for the gray as well. But.....just to be difficult...have you thought about Navy? I think It would look super cool!
Gray.
Lovely quilt. I vote for gray.
Gray! Can't wait to see it all done!
Looks like another vote for gray!! Can't wait to see it finished!!
I love the gray sashing! I would swap the green and orange on the right row because you have two oranges on the bottom row. It looks great!
I'm not normally a gray fan but it really sets it off more than the white.

oh dear - i liked the grey best until i read the comment about trying navy. that might be interesting to see how that looks.
I'm totally in the minority now, but I would go with white. Not that grey wouldn't be fun or interesting, but I love the way white just makes the blocks all flow together. Just my $.02 :) Either way, it's going to be fantastic!
Between the two, I would say gray, but I like Spoolhardy Girl's suggestion NAVY! POW! :)
Your quilt is really looking great...I choose Gray.
Way to not start any new projects last week. I was not so restrained!
i love the way you fussy cut your squares. Grey sashing would be great
I hate to go against the majority, but I really prefer the white! Makes the colors POP!
I like the royal blue. The navy is good too.
Grey!!!! Lovely quilt-so nice tomake progress on a quilt!!
Good job!!
I think white for chrispness or grey for a quieter neutal or navy to set our the blocks
wow iwent back and looked at the blocks again.. how about red? seems to be some red in all blocks??
Did you try red? Otherwise, I vote for the gray. Nice calming feeling to balance
