i would suggest that you lay your blocks together and see what the layout looks like. like me you will have a variety of colors to go along with your focus fabric and you want the blocks to play well together in a quilt.

i plan to sash my blocks with a fabric i hope will unify the different blocks and colors. there is a quilt book called "setting solutions" by sharyn craig that gives great ideas on putting together swap blocks. i ordered a copy on amazon.
