I am trying to decide which of these variations would be right. I have 16 blocks and I wonder if I need to put sashing between the blocks or leave it out and add just the pink border. I have darker pink fabric if you think I need to use it instead of what is in the pics. Please give me your input.
this is with the border only

I can use a darker pink if needed.

this is what the block will look like with the pink around them.

Thank you for that information. It will mean I cut down the number of blocks used. I have a little girl who would love me to makes her some thing with the left overs. I used EQ7 to design the blocks with the real fabrics. It makes it easier to see what the finished block looks like.

As so often happens with opinions on this board, I have a different one, though I know Sulabug is one of our most respected contributors :-)
I like the shapes that are created in the corners when you put the blocks together without sashing.
Of course you may need the sashing to make the quilt a little bigger and that would make good sense too. Good luck, it's a nice quilt either way.

I have enough blocks and it is for a baby quilt about 45inches square. I will get the darker pink and send a photo tomorrow.
