I love the look of lattice strips and cornerstones. The first setting really doesn't give your eye a place to rest and the block designs don't really show up much. The second setting really adds some order to the quilt and makes all the work put into your blocks really stand out. I hope this helps.

I definitely like the second picture, the sashings make the blocks pop out at you.
Hope this helps you, isn't it funny what we always seem to find as wer are on a cleaning & organizing mission!
Happy Quilting!

The first one is cool. The second one give your eye a place to rest. I like them both. The second looks more organized & balanced.

I vote for no sashing :o) I LOVE the ultra scrappy look, but you know me! Amie

The sashing will make it much easier to look at.
