One day I was sick of playing with block designs, so started playing with sashing. the worst thing about this project file is the title, but I am yet to come up with something better.
Then I added some pieces to the blocks to interact with the sashing.
When I can think of a catchy title I have another project file which has been waiting for exposure for a long time with applique sashing.

I called this sashing a lot of names while trying to get it to connect nicely during design, most frequently it was “that Twisted Sashing”, though a few other words crept in from time to time!
I like both variations of the sashing, but I think the first one needs more work, while the second one is workable as it is.

One of my favourite colour combinations, and I love the results.
Love the second one too … no favourite from me, so make up your own mind!

Every so often I stop playing with block designs, and play with sashing designs instead.

And then of course, you can add some blocks with some tricky bits pieced to form a frame around an applique.
