Please help me decide

Hi everyone I really need your help!!! I’m new to quilting and I need some suggestions. Here’s some background info for you: My avatar was my very first quilt (it was for my son) I made another small quilt just like it for a relative. That’s about all the quilting experience I have lol.
I am working on a new quilt and I originally intended on doing a disappearing 9 patch but when I laid all my patches out to see how big the quilt would be I kind of liked the 9 patches without making them disappear lol. Now I don’t know what to do!! Should I do the DNP because that’s what I originally wanted to try or should I just leave the patches alone? I already cut 2 of the patches to get a feel for how it would look and I do like it but I’m still unsure. Help Ladies!! What do you think would look better? Should I leave them alone (I’ll probably rearrange the colors) or should I cut them and do the DNP??
Thanks,
Jamie

That's the fun of quilting. You get to decide the design and colors. I often change my mind during the process. If it were mine I would put a thin sashing (border) around each square. Your choices are so striking. Go for it!

What color do you think I should do for the sashing?? I think my problem is that there are too many choices. It hurts my head to think about all of them lol.
I do think that I'm going to leave the patches the way they are (maybe add some sashing and I'll just make a DNP pillow :-)
