I would add sashing, then a wide border. Solid colored sashing and a wonderful floral print for the borders. Without sashing the quilt will be really small, I would try a darker solid color for the sashing, this will separate the blocks and make them more prominent, without sashing the blocks all run together.
Look at the quilt on your design wall for a while before you decide, don't rush to finish it up, the quilt will tell you what it needs. :thumbup:

I like the sashing added, as it makes it more interesting.

I think so too. A darker sashing I think would show off the colors of the blocks.
But it does look good without sashing.

You've made a good decision -- without sashing. But it looks good either way. Will be looking for completed quilt.

If you want to make the quilt bigger, then use sashing. If you like the size it is, then don't. Looks good either way!
