I like the blocks, and love them with the sashing, both colors. My warped brain said, why not both? Maybe in a zigzag kinda layout. Would look cool, I think!

I like it on the design wall with the white showing - so I vote for white sashing! Yellow looks great, too. Although blue is my favorite color, I like white and yellow more than the blue sashing.

Great looking blocks!

I agree-blocks get lost with the yellow but the blue really compliments them. Great work!

I prefer no sashing - love the scrappy look!

I've always been told yellow is very powerful and will dominate if used in abundance. I agree with another post that black would be a good choice.

The blocks without the sashing look good! If it were mine and I wanted the look of sashing I'd use either the yellow (a first choice) or the blue, but I'd make the sashing very narrow. The narrow sashing will give it a mild "pop" and not take away from the beauty of the blocks. Great job!
