i thought i would just quilt this with simple nested squares, but then the cable idea occurred.
i REALLY don't know if it's awesome or terrible.

The cable softens the linear look of the rest of the quilt. I like it!

seems i feel it's not a quilt unless it has some kind of cable. snork!
I think it looks good. But I do understand your struggle with wanting to get the right quilting. I have felt like I have ruined a quilt by how I quilted it.
You have to be happy with it... but I do like it. How are you going to quilt the rest?
Your quilted cables look great!

It looks super nice to me. I would have put double rows of the cables in each section to add more interest.
The rest will have very minimal sid. It's so linear there's nothing else to do without destroying the lines.
Thank you so much!

It is not bad but it would have been better if it could be a little wider to fill the space. Just my honest opinion.
