so if i showed you these blocks....
 

how would you tell me to make them into a quilt? just like this? with sashing around each one? around a block of 4? with a carpenters star in the center and all these around it? i have 126 of these and hubby and son are pinning them to the wall as i type. input! i want the recipient to say oh WOW holy COW that is stinking AWESOME lady!
this awesome lady is stumped!

Your hubby and son know what they are doing. It's a wonderful, colorful quilt. Quilts don't have to be complex to be beautiful. This one is heading toward beautiful AND fun!

I am not sure what the pattern is called but I would line the same colors up diagonally(like lines of dark blue, lines of light blue etc), then from there i would make it go from light colors to dark colors haha I am not very good at explaining things haha, but either way this quilt is going to look awesome!

Love them just as they are. Sashing would interupt the wonderful motion in the simple pattern.

I loooooove it!

EDIT: The randomness of what your guys are doing is great. The mixed lights and darks allow the eye to move over the quilt in a pleasent way.

EDIT: Here is a sample of something similar and it shows how some quilts just work when they are random.

Loooooove it all over again just the way it is developing!
peace

No to any kind of sashing ... I like the layout just the way it is. Not sure if I would mix it up scrappy like you have it, or attempt to organize the colors in some fashion. Is the recipient an organized, planner type or is she more of a free spirit??

Looks beautiful as is!!!!!!

I think you are all set. I'd just sew it up as it is.

i like it the way it is... no sashing

Do you mean sashing or border? It looks just beautiful the way it is, but you could put a border around it in on of those colors..............

I agree with everyone that it looks great just as it is, very colorful..
