    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.

    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!!!

    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.
