Exactly how I see it. FLW did not use curves except for a few circles.

I really like it. I like to add a curvy element to a very linear top. I think it provides a good balance - beautiful quilt.

I love the quilt but I would have put the squares too keep with the flow of the quilt.

I like it, too! I think it sets off the geometry of the piecing.

That wonderful column effect softens and enhances the quilt.

I'm not a fan of unsewing, but if you do, I would quilt angles to mimic the chevrons.

If you keep it with the cables, I'd add in more angular lines around it to add drama to the quilt.

I don't think the traditional cables go all that well with the modern quilt but if you add more modern quilting lines it will work.
