    I would leave it. It looks beautiful the way it is.

    It looks better without cornerstones than it would with them, I think

    it really looks great like it is. You could do the next one with cornerstones.

    Yes. You have a nice quilt, don't mess with it. There is no rule that you have to have cornerstones on every quilt.

    I am definitely not a "pro", but I think your quilt looks fine the way it is.

    You just did it - "your way" - which works great!

    It's very pretty the way it is, I agree with the others. use cornerstones on your next quilt if you want to, but, this is very very nice for a beginner.
