I agree with many already that if you use sashing, the red is great. I think it would look great without sashing as well. Or put 4 blocks together to make a larger block and then the sashing. And a narrower sashing might also be something to consider. These blocks are just wonderful!!!!

This block is amazing. How many pieces are in it anyway? How many have you made? You are dogged, Mamma!

Those are lovely blocks and well done. I too wonder about the cluster effect of 4 together? Then what about a flange around in the raspberry pink? then the red?

For sure, the red is the choice of the ones you have shown.

Actually I think the white would be fabulous with a great quilting design on it.... The red is very pretty, but if you want the look to be a little less pronounced, go with the white...
