    I love it as is! Real cute. I'm not a fan of sashing of any sort.

    My knee-jerk reaction was "no sashing" but then I saw your sample with the black and I really like that, too.

    I kinda think you can't lose with this one, it's going to look great either way!

    I really like it, what a unique quilt. You could leave it as is, or put on a 2" border of black and maybe a multicolored border after that.

    I love it!!!! Just the way it is. If you need more size, you could add borders, but it is such a bright and modern quilt. Great job

    IMO, there is enough difference in the block backgrounds that sashing is NOT needed. Neat design

    I think black would look very nice and give the blocks a great look. Sue

    I really love it and hope you don't mind if I copy your idea. I love modern quilts. I vote for no sashing.
