Sashing Decisions

Now that the blocks are done for my ‘Ya Ya’ quilt I need to decide on the size of the sashing strips. The blocks will finish 7-1/2″ square set in a 5×7 grid. If I go with a finished 2-1/2″ beige sashing between the blocks and then put a finished 5″ beige background border the quilt would measure around 57″ x 77″. Nice size. Not too big – not too small.

Christmas is fast approaching, do you have all of your holiday quilt projects done?
