I instantly felt I liked it with the sashing, but after looking at it for a few minutes, I like it better without the sashing. I think it will be a more interesting and unique quilt without the sashing.

The sashing just gives it something more to the blocks.

I usually like sashing best, but in this case quilt becomes more interesting without sashing. Flip a coin and then be satisfied with the result. froggyintexas

(Looks like you are going to get about 50-50 in the opinions - not much help, are we?!

If it was my quilt, I would use one of those scrappy colors as sashing and then a border of all black. This should pop your quilt which is going to be beautiful.

Gorgeous - I think this is just a personal taste thing. What look are you going for? I think I like the sashing...but it would be just as interesting without it.

I also like it with the sashing, but could get used to it without the sashing...either way it is pretty. The sashing kind of gives you breathing room as you look it, and without it, it is just kind of breathtaking...I hope you understand what I mean. The colors are gorgeous and either way would be really pretty!

That must have been fun to paper piece! I like the sashing as it's more dramatic in bringing out the details.
