Definitely with the black.

What a great block! I need to find it. I'm in the middle of making my DMIL quilts out of her stash for each of her grandchildren. I've been keeping every scrap big enough (3/4") to sew with. I've been thinking scrappy blocks and now I have a pattern! Thank you!

the black sets things off nicely! Good call.

I bought these a few years ago and have used them a lot, lovely size with a border for placemats, especailly with Xmas scraps!

I love your blocks, I think the black gives each block it's own attention, without the black sashing they seem to run together to me.

with out the sashing looks more like the old crazy quilts I grew up with

I think the black is good.

love your crazy squares and definitely some sort of sashing or the bias tape will do them justice. I know your heartfelt pain.
