I like the second one also. Love the scrappy blocks. Can't wait to see the fininshed quilt.

You had a perfect name in your posting when you said "my out of control blocks". Call it "out of control".

Looking good Don. I like the second one. After reading the name of the original block I started humming "Ground Control to Major Tom".....so how about "Major Don's Space Scraps".

I like #2 the best, but if you decide to use sashing I'd make it a lot smaller, more like an accent than a sashing.

I like it both ways use sashing if short on blocks

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.

Every block are of different colored pieces

I like the second one better. It looks neat when the squares sewed together make a solid white square on point. Very nice.

Second picture creates a secondary pattern and is my choice. LOVE the scrappiness.

I also like number two........love the scrappiness of it. "Out of Control" is a wonderful name!

I like it with no sashing, which is unusual for me because I almost always want sashing. One consideration no one else mentioned: how many more blocks will you need to make if you don't sash it? froggyintexas

I like both, but do like it without sashing better. So #2 for me as well
