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. [ATTACH=CONFIG]531874[/ATTACH] |
What a beautiful quilt!!! I do like the cable!!!
|
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.
|
I think it's terribly awesome.
|
I think it's great
|
I really like the cables and they are well done! What is most important though is what you like.

It is Awesome!
|
I really love the cables - It makes your quilt come to life. I also love this quilt - the pattern, the fabric the colors! Great job.

Personally, in keeping with the pattern, I would quilt it in linear lines. Cables are "soft". You asked for honesty!

I think a crosshatch would have complimented the design of your beautiful work.
|
Is this the one that is supposed to duplicate a church window? I really like your cables but not in this place. If you want something in those spaces, maybe a cross-hatch that would be more like something you would see in a church window?

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.
|
I too thought that the cable was too narrow for the space, but then also thought that if the straight-line quilting were done on the vertical lines on each side, that would balance it out nicely.
|
I think I would put a straight line on each side of the cable and that way it would fill the space. I like the cable in that space. It just needs a little tweak. Ha!
|
The cable adds a very nice touch to your beautiful quilt! Good choice!!

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 think the cables add another dimension to a mostly geometric quilt. Like the result.

i REALLY don't know if it's awesome or terrible. what says qb?[ATTACH=CONFIG]531780[/ATTACH] thank you! aileen Kim |
what is an "echo"? Besides being reverb in an amplifier for an electric guitar, is just repeating the pattern block?

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.

My honest opinion---I love it.
|
It's awesome!
|
Your cables are beautiful, but I think they look a bit lonely in that large space. Try echoing them three times and then do a linear filler for the rest of the white area. I like lots of quilting and if you don't then you would think I go overboard with quilting!! Beautiful quilt!
|
Those cables complement the long window shape and are great.
|
Looks awesome to me!
