If you put your blocks on point, they'll straighten out. Also, I wouldn't do sashing because it will break up part of the design, imo.
Very Nice Quilt! Love the color combination. Now, I agree with deema (quoted) if you turn blocks, then one straightens out the on point one in the center. As for sashing, I would not; however, for borders, absolutely. I would use that dark green in maybe 2 inch and follow with the dark maroon in a 3inch border. Of course, that could be larger if you wanted a larger quilt. But in any event, you have one great quilt here.
