Carol, I love your blocks and of the optional layouts, I am really drawn to the one with the green. I might look into that but don't really think I have enough greens left to do it. Otherwise, I will go with the original sashing using scrappy neutrals.
I have 8 of my blocks sewn and am taking a break to rest my back and shoulders. It's fiddly and my muscles get tense and cramp up. Love spending time with my heating pads. LOL
