I agree with the suggestion of echo quilting on each side-to anchor the cables in the spaces. I'm one who finds a mix of curved and linear quilting on a geometric pattern very pleasing. Having said this I would choose one other area to include curved quilting for balance if it were mine. Really lovely quilt!!!

I agree that the cables are well done but not exactly in keeping with the linear nature of Frank Lloyd Wright designs. If you don't want to pick out, though, maybe you could quilt a line or two between each cable and the side of each block . I'm thinking there's a stitch that looks like those "arrow feathers" in the blue section at the top of the picture. It needs more quilting beside the cables and lines would do it.

I like it a lot!

The cables look really good and the pattern is awesome.

Yeah. They're gonzo. I came home from work and decided that I really don't like them. Glad I stopped half way!

Sometimes one has to try something to decide if one likes it or not!

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!!
