Framing my blocks

Not the best photo, but I can report that my Fat Quarter Stars blocks are all framed with blue 1.5" strips.  Now they are ready for sashing. 

These blocks are all different 12.5" star patterns, and they are made with various shades of blues, greens, and purples mostly from Kate Spain's Terrain line.  I decided they needed something to tie them together a bit more, so I framed each one using the same solid fabric before adding some white sashing.  Then a floral border will finish it off.

I like framed blocks in quilts. As you stated, it unifies a variety of blocks, like sampler blocks.
