I just got my order of batik fat quarters from Connecting Threads. Oh my, how beautiful they are. This will be a great project for me to use them.

I think a narrow black sashing would be very pretty.

me, I wouldn't do sashing. I would also try to arange the blocks so that the squares are near like colors to make a larger square of similar color. just my two cents.

Those are beautiful blocks. I think I would do the sashing - to make each block a unique part of your quilt.

I like it. I would do without the sashing, and maybe a wider (6 inch) outside black border. If you really want sashing, black would be my choice. Nice!!

I think sashing would tie it together and it would be really a good look.

they are beautiful !! i think I like the suggestion of arranging the blocks so like colors make a center of 4 blocks. Make a bunch more, lay them out on the floor and then look at them thru the wrong end of binoculars. You will see the whole as if it was at a distance. Much easier to judge how the overall effect is

Keep up what you are doing -- they are great
