I really love that quilt, even without corners. Thanks for the link to the patterns. It will be on my to-do list for sure.

I have to agree. HOLY CRAP that is cool. What an incredible looking quilt.

Going out on a limb here--what about doing some kind of applique for the corners? You could just use big triangles for the corners and applique swirls or spikey flowers or ??? It would add another design element to it, and soften the look a bit--if that's what you want.
It is a beautiful quilt just as it is though. Great job!

Amazing and beautiful quilt! WOW!

I have an idea for the borders...
first, maybe a thin border to separate.
then, I was thinking, what if you made a bigger spike in the corner of each corner? Do you know what I mean?? I think that would look so cool. Then a border (maybe a pieced border?) and voila.

Again, gorgeous!!!!
