Sashing or No Sashing?????

I finished the blocks for a monochromatic quilt I made from some brown and gold fabric I had but have yet to put it together because I can't decide whether to put sashing or not. I asked my friends for their opinion and they came back 50/50 so here I am, hoping you could help break the 50/50 tie. One of the ones that voted for sashing suggested a thinner sashing as an option could you tell me what you think about that too!

Please help, I am dying to get it quilted. I made it for a very dear friend and I am anxious to give it to her.

Sashing or No Sashing??????

I vote with sashing.

Have you thought of rotating the blocks on every other row? I think that would give you separation without the sashing.

i like it with the sashing!

I'm with Britt, I do like the sashing.

Sashing! beautiful quilt. Can't wait to see what you decide to do and the finished quilt.

Oh yeah, love the sashing! Can't wait to see it finished!

I vote for sashing. Please show us when you get it finished. Love the fabric.

Yep, sashing would do the trick.

I always swim in a different creek - or backwards, or something. But I TRULY LOVE it without the sashing.

Different strokes for different folks.

Sashing wins by majority. A couple of my friends swam with you Sandy but I think I'm going to go with the majority!

Thanks everybody, I was really having a hard time deciding. :)
