Try sashings made of a brown print? Or maybe a brown tonal batik? Or a brown applique in each square? Maybe a brown and teal Celtic applique that travels across the entire quilt?

I know how you feel, taking it apart and re-doing it. I had the challenge with an Album Quilt which I thought could be a lot better. So, I re-did it, and just have to tie it now. It just wasn't my best.
I also had a table topper with the Amish Pattern of a large center block, and all hand quilted. It had the cornerstones of Amish Blocks and looked really good.
Decided it could have been better so took it apart and re-did it. It was still pretty when I got it done.
Don't worry; I now just do my best work the first time!

All of the suggestion looked very good to me Can't think of anything to add.

I actually like it. It's random and modern.

Did you have a pattern for how to put those blocks together? They look like they have lost their way and would be just gorgeous if put together as intended. Nan's presentation has all blocks exactly alike, but yours has some that are different. I would try four blocks and place them in different ways to see what pattern comes out.

And don't dismiss the brown. You could find a pleasing brown for the sashing and it may be stunning with these colors.

I like Teen's idea. Some together for a center and then a border around that, then more blocks around. It is busy. The eye needs somewhere to rest.

It's amazing how a black on white or white on black fabric can jazz up a design. If I were you, I would take every fabric color I had and start laying it out as a sashing. Especially look for contrasts. Or take one of the blocks to Hobby Lobby or Joanne's and hold it up to every fabric they have that you think you may like. I've had to do that before when I just couldn't decide.

Or, look through this Bing search engine Crazy Quilt with Sashing images. Maybe you'll get some inspiration. https://www.bing.com/images/search?q...ages&FORM=IGRE

Try a 3 part sashing....brown, teal, brown Sometimes that little bit of variance makes the difference.

If I were closer we could have a frogging party...rippit, rippit, rippit. I spent some time studying the blocks. If you look at the 4th row over the blocks make a saw tooth type design with the dark part of the blocks going vertically. If you have enough you could arrange them around a solid piece of brown or a brown print to form a square or rectangular design as a focal point in the center (or wherever you want it) and maybe do the same with the lighter colored blocks to fill in around the eye catcher area. Could even border around the areas with the brown to separate it like square outlines in 3 sizes. (Makes sense to me...maybe not saying it right) The brown accent would make it look 3 dimensional. Hopefully not too confusing to decipher what I'm trying to say.

Interesting you hate it because i don't think it's that bad. Have you considered doing some applique over it? Someone suggested snowflakes. But it could be anything.

I made a quilt one time called "Confusion" found it on the internet. It had the odd shaped pieces to make a square block and used different fabrics, which I chose shades of blue in small prints. The one suggestion I got from their instructions was to try to make colorways thru the quilt. In other words, try to match the white at the corners and sides to made a path thru the quilt of white. And the other colors. The pieces that look like a 4 patch help move the color to another shade. I am going to try to attach a picture I made of printing your quilt, cutting it into the little squares and arranging them so the white is near the middle, the lighter blue next and the darker colors toward the outside but touching its same color to lead your eye. I think you would need to make some more squares with

white in them to [ATTACH=CONFIG]585897[/ATTACH]make it better. The little squares were not exactly square so that is why they don't fit so well. I put a border on mine like a piano keyboard but in all the colors of the quilt.

[QUOTE=Jennifer23;7967358]I would try sorting the blocks: dark, medium-dark, medium-light and light. Then arrange them in a gradient. This might make it more cohesive.[/QUO
I would do this before anything else. Don't go thru all the work until you try this. I think it would be great and look very modern. And to me, quilting always makes any flimsy look so much better!
