I have dreamed up so many setting solutions for these blocks it's making me dizzy. I had decided on straight set, with sashing and decided to make two types of blocks, with and without the side squares in the second print. Then I made up several possible settings on point, with and without sashing. At first I didn't like the look where the print triangles intersected because the print is busy and it looked chaotic. But now with several rows laid out it doesn't bother me as much. I also bandied about whether to sash it in green or purple. And what do to with the corner half triangles - pieced or solid fabric? I can't make up my mind. Here is the EQ representation of my latest suggestion:
Compare with my purple sashed option:
Or this version:
Or green sashing:
Someone needs to take me by the shoulders and say "Make that one!"

Personally, I like the purple-sashed one, but I would still add the plain border.
Not the green sashed one unless you want a green quilt. I like the purple sashed one I think best, but would need to see the setting fabrics before choosing one option or the other.
I like the first layout with no sashing. i like the secondary shapes that happen when the blocks are right next to each other.
The purple sashing with the darker, plain border.
The first one! :-)
Make the first layout! Or the last one! I like the complicated look of the pattern! With the obvious sashing I say... "Oh, she made the blocks and put them together." Without the sashing or with the ligh sashing I think "Wow! How did she do that?"
