Churn Dash Blocks

I'm participating in Chooky Blue's churn dash sew along. Check out her blog for links to other participating quilters.

Twenty churn dash blocks were pieced in August. Now I have the 50 blocks I need for my quilt.


I don't have fabric for the sashing, I guess this means I'll have to do some shopping! I'm hoping I can find a brown stripe, the cornerstones will be pink stars but that's not definite. Wouldn't a pink and brown floral make a lovely outside border?

The first store I'll check is Caroline's Cotton Corner in Rome City. If they don't have what I'm looking for, I'll see what I can find at Lolly's in Shipshewana.
