Me too-I like the visual effect with no sashing-it gives it a more modern feel!

I would go without the sashings, this way the blocks interact more with each other.

Oh yes to sashing. It will help each block shine on its own. Beautiful!

It is very pretty but I would use white sashing in between the blocks. This really compliments them and a nice red with white print for the back or vice versa. Very nice job!

Our quilt guild recently offered this quilt as an Opportunity Quilt (AL does not allow raffles) and made more money on it than any past quilt. No sashing, backed in white. It was a great success!

Another voter for the "I LOVE it like it is"! I like the way the blocks blend with each other and the motion from the variety. But, if you did want some sashing, I might sash with red but maybe have cornerstone (I CRAFT so don't remember what they're called in the sashing) with red and white. It really is quite beautiful as is.
