I really like the color grouping. I would choose the blue color or maybe a 1" black strip for sashing just enough to break up the blocks but not enough to make it jump out at you.

Just what I was thinking.

I agree with Deanne. A small black sashing will make all those wonderful colors really pop!

I agree with Clem on this one. I definitely like the yellow if you decide on sashing.

Either way with or without sashing is going to be pretty. I'm leaning toward the sashing as it would highlight each block. Can't wait to see pictures of the finished quilt. Pretty colors!

Great colors. I think black or navy would set the blocks off nicely.

Neat blocks, I think you need sashing in between the blocks, it would make them stand out better.

Nice and bright but I definitely would add sashing!

I think your blocks are beautiful and I also think a narrow black sashing would really make your colors stand out. Maybe like an inch wide sashing. Cut it 1 1/2" to finish at 1". Then you could bind it with black too. Would love to see what you decide to do with it when finished.
