Default suggestions needed to finish up quilt

These blocks had been donated to the church. They were sashed with the fabric shown but I took it all apart to straighten it up. The picture shows the blocks put up on the design wall to see if the sashing would be useable again. I want to be able to reuse the sashing if possible but might need to add some cornerstones in the sashing. The blocks and sashing needs to be trimmed and squared. My question is ...what can I do to finish this up? Suggestions needed for border colors, designs, etc. Someone did a lot of work embroidering the blocks and it was headed for becoming a UFO. Can't let that happen. Took hours to take apart. Thought about just cutting it apart but then would cut down on the sashing size. The blocks would have been fine trimmed up. The original sewist thought the more stitches to the inch the better it would be. LOL Teeny tiny stitches.
