Crazy 8 patch


Crazy 8 patch, originally uploaded by stitch-by-stitch.

Yep, you read right. Crazy 8 patch. I meant it to be 9 but couldn't count :) Turns out for the better though as I only needed 16 blocks to make the appropriate sized quilt. Now, what colour should I use for sashing? Pink? Stone? Purple? Cotton/linen blend?

Each block measures 8" as is. So when they are sewed together in rows, 4 blocks will total 30". Not really wide enough for a baby blanket. Should I sash in between rows and then around the outer edges? Or should I sash around each block?
