As you can see this "going to be" quilt has 10 sides. What do you suggest as to how I should finish it. Leave it as is or add fabric to square it up?
Thanks for your ideas.

10 sides

It's beautiful. I would leave it as it is, 10-sided.

That is beautiful, I'd probably want it to be squared up for myself, but I wouldn't know where to begin doing it :-D :-D !

I'm no help, but as is, it looks like it would fit my round table just fine:) Very nice.

Thank you all for your comments! Had not thought of it as a table topper, good idea.

I would it as is. I would be afraid squaring it up might take the beauty away from it.

As lovely as your quilt is in it's round form, I would square it off for a bed quilt. It is an awesome quilt as it is, however!!!!

I love it just as is for a table topper. If I was going to use it as a quilt I would square it off
