Rethinking (or thinking too much)

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!"
