Yes! Yes! Yes!! I love the border fabric with the blocks.
That said ... take a look at it with mitered borders instead of the cornerstones. I dont' think the cornerstones are adding anything to the table. You have a lovely focus center ... give it a simple but pretty frame and let the dogs shine.

Thank you everyone. I felt there was something not quite right. It was not singing to me. I was thinking the problem might be the multi-color sash. I thought it was my fabric, but now I am understanding that it is really a proportion issue. I will cut it down, and I bet I will feel a lot happier with it. Blessings to all of you quilting angels who encouraged me and suggested I make a few changes including move one of the windmill blocks down.

BearisGray and DogHouseMom, I just lost those corner stones. :-) Thanks for helping me see that the cornerstones were taking away from the focus of the quilt.

Personally, I am not a fan of the border fabric - think it is too busy - and too blue (personal taste, of course) If it were my quilt - and I really like the rest of the block, I would go with a creamy color and let the dogs do all the talkin'
