I completely agree. I think it looks fabulous as is and I wouldn't take it apart.

First;there are no quilt police. In fact I like what you have done with your setting. Corner Stones can be used on your next one. This is too pretty to take apart. By the way- the setting you have used is usually a lot harder. Marvel

I think it is pretty as it is, therefore, I would not go back and add them. You don't want to add them on top.

It's my first and only one. I refuse to start another until this top is done. I'm working hard so I can start a BOM at my LQS....

Who would ever know the cornerstones aren't there? I sure wouldn't. I say it beautiful as it is.

It is pretty as is. Why don't you chalk this one off to experience and try corner stones on the next one. If you want to add something in place of corner stones, you could add an applique.
