Default To sash or not

This is what I did with my Rose & Violets Garden fabrics, and would like some thoughts on using sashing or not. Pix one is without, no 2 is on cream & 3 is using white. Also thinking of setting the blocks on-point.
Had a storm after setting these up, went in to close the window and the wind had blown the lot off the bed onto the floor. No way to place them the same as before so had to start over.

A vote for no sashing on this one. Second choice is white sashing.

Either is pretty! If you want it bigger, I would put in the sashing.

I like it with sashing but it’s your quilt. Will be pretty whatever you decide. Oh and I like the white sashing best too, just my opinion.

I like the white sashing, second choice is no sashing.
Try this: Narrow it down to two. Set up half the blocks one way, the other half the other way, then walk out of the room and don't go back for a few hours. Walk back into the room and you will immediately know which is your favorite!
