For this quilt, I would leave it as it is - it's very pretty! Next quilt, you can add cornerstones. :)

I like it as it is. Cornerstones, to my mind, would make it a trifle too busy. This is sleek and modern, I like it. One of my GDs would adore it, she's into uncluttered designs.

Everything matches - looks great as is - I WOULD NOT take it apart at this stage of the game. Enjoy your first quilt l- there is absolutely nothing wrong with it.

I think it looks lovely just the way it is. Who knew the pattern called for cornerstones? Only you. I always say a quilt turns out the way it is supposed to and yours is great.

Very nice quilt, leave it as is. Many quilts out there without cornerstones and this happens to to one of them! Try some cornerstones on another quilt. Happy Quilting.

If you want to do something different, you can get fabric crayons (old paint) or markers and draw in your cornerstones... might be fun! Thanks for sharing- I love your quilt, it is very beautiful...
