A tentative design

Prior to buying the set of charm squares, I'd considered doing a flying geese quilt and picked up a ruler to do so. Lo and behold, I just remembered that you can make four flying geese at 2" x 4" using a 5.5" square of colored material and a larger square in white. Perfect!
So after a bit of playing around, I think I'm going to do something along these lines, though with more "scrappiness" in the geese. (I was lazy with EQ and only used four colors for the blocks, but I'm going to have far more than that in my packet of fabric.) I tried it without sashing, but the effect was too busy, so I think that I'll be doing 8" blocks with 2" sashing. The finished result should look something like this:
