belfrey If it was me, I’d add something bright & cheerful for the sashing. Even though you’ve got 16” blocks the quilt will be quite small without any sashing added. Your’s is a truly scrappy quilt, something I have a hard time doing myself. I always have to have rhyme & reason in anything I make. Controlled scrappy is as close as I’ve ever gotten & did pretty good with this quilt train. I really love the beginning of your medallion quilt. Now there’s a quilt along I could get into!
64" square seems to be a good size for a charity quilt. I prefer rectangular quilts, but didn't want to do any more piecing to extend it. 
Mystery Train 20 2 rows done. Here’s what the sashing will look like between them.

Macybaby: I like the way you matched your butterflies(1/2 HST’s) with the same color family.
I have a lot of red in my 9-patches so I am putting them together in the center block. Hopefully, I will get more blocks assembled tomorrow.
