Beautiful blocks but I think I would add sashing to make the pop.

Love your stars:)!!! I've read through all of the posts....what a big decision you have to make. Can't wait to see what you decide. I like sashing, but, on these stars I'd not use it...great space for some teriffic quilting. Maybe put a binding on with all strips of the star colors. Good luck and let us know what you decided:)

Unless you did a narrow sashing using fabrics used in the block, I think I would just butt the blocks together. The blocks are beautiful, can't wait to see the finished quilt.

I would go with no sashing...imo, it's not really needed but it's up to you :o

These blocks are beautiful. Either way would look good. Not much help.....but like your work!!!

Could you share the pattern name? Your blocks are gorgeous andI think I like the idea of white sashing or none. Thanks for sharing.

Your blocks are spectacular and it will come down to "do I, or don't I" the choice is ultimately yours, and I like the idea of auditioning fabric between the blocks to see if you like the sashing

I would add sashing to frame each block, beautiful either way.

This is going to be a beautiful quilt. I love it. As far as the sashing goes, I think either way would be great.

It depends on how you are going to quilt it. If you are good at fmq or handquilt, then I would not sash at all. You could do some really nice fmq or hand quilt in the white space. If you aren't really good or fmq or hand quilting, then I would put some more color in between the blocks, framing each block with a different color and do some simple quilting .
