    ooooh the oranges and the lighter one celebrates the brights. definately not the black as it does nothing for the colors imho. i am just looking forward to seeing the finished product.

    Any of the colorful sashing options you pictured would work, but I still like it better without...just my personal preference...as it gives the secondary design that is lost when you add sashing.

    Oooh, black would be really nice. May use a one and a half strip for the sashing. Then it would look kind of like a stained glass window

    I concur with others on the dark sashing, black is always my favorite. I would keep the sashing narrow, just enough so the eye can rest. Love the blocks.

    I would like to see these blocks with a beautiful patterned, bright color fabric for the sashing... Your blocks are gorgeous, so don't be afraid to add more color to them.

    I wouldn't do sashing. I like how it teases the eye.

    I like it with out sahsing, but might not if I looked at it for a long period of time. I would use a dark sashing such as navy to seperate the blocks but not take away from them..Just love the fabrics!!
