SASHING HELP--Please
 
2 Attachment(s)
I have been working on another scrappy quilt, using halloween and fall prints mostly, and now need to decide on the sashing. I am using strictly from my stash, and I found these 2 pieces that could work. Any comments or suggestions are very much appreciated. this first one has a fine green sashing with dark maroon cornerstones. I would actually use a dark green cornerstone, but I had some maroon ones cut, so it is just for contrast.

And this one has a fine line maroon fabric for the sashing and I think that I would use the maroon cornerstones with this one.
Again, thanks for looking and for any comments. Sure do appreciate the help.

The second definitely. It just brings out the colors in the scrappy block.

I also like the second one a lot better. It is really pretty.

The maroon looks great! :)

the 2nd one 'pops out at you'. depends on whether you want a 'pop out' or a restful quilt. the both look good. can't go wrong either way.

ok im the odd (wo)man out.. i love LOVE the contrast of the green... IMHO the maroon is to dark for my taste...

I like the first one better

Either one would be beautiful, but I love the first one with the green, because it is a bit different.

It's always amazing to me how a single fabric choice can make a quilt look so different! Both are nice, but the second one has way more pop than the first.

I like the second one - it makes the blocks look "richer".
