Great job on the blocks. I like it without the sashing.

When I test w/w/o sashing, I lay a yardage or a sheet across my bed of the color I might use for sashing. The next step is laying out the pieces with spacing to show how it will look with sashing. Take photos then compare. That way you don't have to cut up sashing strips.

I think sashing would complicate but not improve

I like it just the way you have it laid out with no sashing.

I would also try laying some sashing strips down and photographing them to see how they would look.
Maybe a dark blue?
