    I like #2 the best. As for a name maybe Scrappy Camp or Scraps Galore.

    I like the second because your eye naturally flows from one block to another, whereas with sashing each block is isolated and your eye just stops at each one. I think there is enough of the light background color to keep it from getting too busy without the sashing. I am a great admirer of all your quilts, Don, and am honored that you asked for my opinion!

    I like both of the blocks, whatever works for you. Will be a nice scrappy quilt when finished.

    I like #2 better. I would then call it "Islands of Repose" reflecting the white in a sea of madness.

    The second picture is more intriguing to me. I would choose no sashing.

    I like the first but put a cornerstone in and it will really have a different feel to it. Call it Scrap Heaven, or Scrap Galaxy...

    Version #2 is it for me. It pops better than with sashing.

Or if anyone has a name for my out of control blocks, I'll consider your name/quilt, also Do I want to use sashing strips between the blogs, or sew the blocks all together. In away, I feel it will be to busy, but thats just my opinion. Take care everyone. Don-isewman[ATTACH=CONFIG]520009[/ATTACH]The 1st picture is roughly a imaginary(sp) sashing.[ATTACH=CONFIG]520011[/ATTACH]The 2nd picture is of the 4 blocks sewed together. Every block are of different colored pieces
    I like the second one too. I like how they make a white square in the middle.
