I also think it need a small 1" sashing to seperated the block and make them standout. Try auditioning different colors sashing like maybe green leaves or green polkadot . Black may be too dark. Make the sashing fairly light so it frames the blocks but does not out shine them. m

Your blocks look great. And I agree, a narrow sashing of black would really set them off. I had to smile when you mentioned the ants. I personally kind of liked the idea, maybe no embroidered ones, but it would be fun to do a couple in the quilting, just for a subtle touch of whimsy?

I really like your offset rows do you really want to do half blocks on those short rows or leave that for creative quilting spaces? Negative spaces can add a lot sometimes. I really like your blocks and going outside the box think it would make such a beautiful table cloth and kitchen curtains doing a whole kitchen scheme around this quilt block and fabric collection.
