    Yes I thought this also. How about a little echo quilting to fill it in.

    I like some curvy quilting on geometric piecing. But it does seems like it needs a little more quilting to fill in the space between the outer edges of the cables and the black lines. What about another couple of curvy lines to echo the cable curves? Or some narrow straight lines of matchstick quilting on either side of the narrow black sashing lines? I really like this quilt!!

    I agree, just a little more filling in - fantastic work by the way.

    Love the quilt but, sorry, but I don't like the quilting. FLWright was all about the linear. I would have used a derivation of the upper pattern.

    In my opinion, I agree.

    I like the "echo" idea to fill the spaces a little more completely! Good thought.

    what is an "echo"? Besides being reverb in an amplifier for an electric guitar, is just repeating the pattern block?

    To me cables don't really go with FLW, but you did a nice job on them.
