Great quilt franie I love the blocks and the border fabric

I agree that I like the bottom one best also.

Just noticed that you have another fabric with the white one.

Like the second option best, but not totally happy with it.
I think I would either go with a solid corner or do a 4 patch with the two small white squares leading the eye into the center.
or...maybe use the diamondy square in a square block for your cornerstone?

The small white square just doesn't look properly proportioned to everything else, although I see your reason for trying to echo the 'arrow' look of the main blocks.

I like the bottom one, but it needs another light square on the corner.

Added: Yes, I looked again, and that little white square by itself looks unbalanced, like it's just hanging there. It's distracting. Either use more of the red print or do a 4 patch with another white square to balance the white square.

Number 2

I agree with bearisgray...I don't however, have any bright ideas on what to put instead....but I do love this design and your colours.

I have not done a lot of quilting but I agree with BKrenning

I love your quilt great colors and I prefer number 2

I would use the dark red, but I wouldn't put it where you currently have it planned -- I would move it back to where the two diamont borders meet. Good luck!

I like the first one but either would work. I love the quilt. It is so pretty.

I like the white idea for the corner stone. Why not make it a double corner stone. squares joined at each corner, rather than the straight sides.

Have a peaceful day.

Like the top one, however I like this idea of making the corner stone bearisgray has written.

Beautiful quilt! I like the first one best but even a diamond shape like you have in the rest of the quilt in brown/white as the cornerstone would look very nice.

Everybody here is so nice and complimentary. Franie must have her doubts about the corner stone or she wouldn't have asked or maybe she just asks around to have her opinion confirmed? I think this is a great quilt and a little skimpy white square would ruin the overall look. So there, now crucify me.

I like the top one, but I would make the white square bigger or at least the same size as the dark fabic square in the corner. It think it would have more balance that way.

I think a square in a square like in the border would look great. What a beautiful quilt!!!

I love the quilt....cornerstone 4 patch?

That is one beautiful quilt...doesn't it feel good to know that you're getting right??? I like the top one best.

Not to be a pain in the rump but that quilt is beautiful but my eyes are drawn to the white square and not the overall quilt. Maybe go with a different color or just stay with the brown.

me too

I think the cornerstone on the pieced border needs to be the red, and the cornerstone on the outer border needs to be all white - not pieced. It's a beautiful quilt - your color selections are great!

I would do both.....that would draw the eye from the brown corner out to the edge of the border corner. Hope I clear on this, in other words do one white small square and then diangonally another. The one white small square looks a little lost with the beautiful brown fabric around it. Since you prefer not to have a solid brown or solid white full corner stone, the two diagonal small squares would balance....
You have created a gorgeous quilt. Absolutely beatiful.
I would like to see the whole quilt, or some of the other squares....Great job.

First one if you're going to use one. Beautiful quilt!!!!!

I like the bottom one

Your explanation of the added binding makes sense. My choice is the top one.

Beautiful quilt with beautiful colors. I prefer the top one.

I vote for #2. It will make a neat "block"where it comes together

Of the two, the bottom, but I would actually prefer no corner at all, just use the frame. Gives more emphasis to the quilt, the small white corner takes your eye away from the quilt and becomes a focal point.

Definitely the top one.

I think some of you are only seeing the white fabric and not the little block surrouding it!

Oh my Lord, there are lots of suggestions here!
How about putting a white square on point...larger. Like you have in the inner border in brown. Just reverse the colors.

To my eye, the small scale of that white square is off... it does not seem like it is relating to the rest of the border treatment.
Does that make sense?

The quilt is gorgeous, BTW! great job and :thumbup: :thumbup: for hanging in there through the tough spots!

I like the top one.mkay

I agree!

Number one :-D

I like this idea, too! Beautiful quilt, by the way1

I like #1 and I agree to change the size of white square. Beautiful work!

No way! Your opinion is valued and appreciated!

top one.

Back to the drawing board. I am trying something dif I think as I do agree the scale might be off. And the white takes the eye from the middle part of the quilt. See I took all of your suggestions into consideration. Every post was read and considered so far. I just might leave it all brown. Maybe change that one corner stone on the pieced border. I can't believe I am fussing with it so late in the game!
