I absolutely disagree. I think the random nature of the diagonal strips really adds to the character of the quilt. It may not work in other instances, but I think it does here. It was hard to tell from the photos, but was the sashing between the blocks a strip of 'cheater' fabric or did you piece it from the 5 fabrics.
In any event, it will be greatly loved.
