Hi Leonajo I vote for the blue that you have on the right.
Very pretty. I like it.

Not ugly !!! ...nice work instead...I like the white, lets the blocks shine more...the blue one makes it more subtle.

Definitely the blue.

White works best for me. Once you're done, you will love it.

I don't think it is ugly at all! I prefer the blue for sashing.

You can make a pattern with those blocks and leave out the sashing. My first quilt used yellow and blue blocks but also have hst.

My first quilt 15- 16 yrs ago

I like the blue the white is kind of blinding,it kind of detracts from the blocks themselves. But one you get it put all together, I'm sure you will change your mind about not likeing it. It's very pretty.

It's going to be a very pretty quilt, not at all ugly. I personally like the blue and I don't think that you will need the little white squares. Just my opinion of course.
