    I think the spiral out from the center would be great. Instead of doing circles out though I would do a straight line spiral to stay with the anglular look. I would start in the center of the center blocks and stitch straight to the center of each wall on the center block. I would move out from there to the center of each outer block wall until each block is quilted. It will look great whatever design you decide on. Great quilt top!

    this is a link that was posted here a couple of weeks ago. she didn't put sashing... her blocks look good without the sashing. I thought mine looked better with the sashing

    oops, the link http://www.fromthebluechair.com/2010...-tutorial.html

    Great quilt. If it were mine, I would do a zig zag medium fill stitching in the back ground of each square and outline each inside shape. Sandy 64

    I LOVE the modern look of this quilt. I immediatly thought of a Zig-zag like some of the others suggested...that would keep the sharp look and keep with the modern look. Sometimes on my own personal quilts I don't like to soften the lines either...I think sometimes it's good to keep them sharp.That's just my opinion.
