I think I like it without sashing - it's your call. There is no right or wrong way, just however you like it and the size.

Oh I like Irish Roses ideas. That would be beautiful.

Ooh...I like this idea...a stripe that has most of the colors in your blocks. Unusual, but it would be so striking.

I would try thin black sashing - preferably so ti finishes at half an inch wide, but not bigger than an inch. Please show us your results.

I like the way the 4 squares 'float' with the sashing. And I think the white is perfect.

Try wider white sashing, at least as wider as the squares. Try a narrow inner border of one of the bright colors.

I like the sashing look but white would be too much. You need a color - blue - black - red - green

I have no black material or I might try that as some of you have suggested. TQ.

I love it as is with the white.
