I would put the same design in each of the same colored pieces or I would do a grey thread overall that would not even show up. It really can stand on it's own.

It is so sharp. I really enjoyed seeing this quilt

That's a great way to do that design. Thanks for the info.

I would do something with curves. Whenever you have straight lines, you should use curves.

OH fabulous quilt! And my husband wonders why I use so much color ink in my printer - I print off these wonderful quilts and put in my "to do" folder!
