I like the look when there's no sashing for this quilt! Regarding if you should make it bigger, what do you want to do with it? Wall hanging? Then it's fine the size it is. If you want a lap quilt, then a bit bigger in my opinion. Nice any way you slice it though!

This is beautiful! I agree with no sashing. As far as size, it's really up to you and what you want. Do you feel like continuing with it, or would you be happy with a wall hanging? I think it would be a great lap or nap quilt if enlarged.

No sashing. Beautiful pattern and great colors! Size wise, what do you want to do with it? Wall hanging, lap quilt, etc. I prefer wall hangings, but will do larger quilts occasionally.
Whatever you decide it is a really nice quilt!

IMHO, I would like to see the pattern unbroken by sashing. This pattern has lots of fun movement and would be stopped by adding them. As far as size goes, How big is it now? It would make a great lap quilt if it were a little bigger, maybe by adding borders. Personally, would love to see more blocks. I would make as many as my fabric allowed. It is fabulous.

I agree on the no-sashing vote. It's quite eye catching as it is, and if you wanted to build it out to something bigger, perhaps an offset wide border, probably with one of the darker colours (would want to audition to see what appeals to you there) would give it a really modern quilt look. I think if I was sashing them, again, I'd go with a more offset look rather than equal side-by-side setting and see how that looks. Look forward to seeing what you do end up doing !
