I like the cables, but I think nested squares would have looked better. Just my opinion, LOL

Nice way of quilting a Frank Lloyd Wright inspired quilt!!!😎

I agree with these two posts.

Feeling stupid, but I don't know what the nested squares quilting looks like. Can you point me to a picture? I like your cables and think you did a great job! Home machine or long arm? Did you mark them or free motion? While, I like the cables, I don't think they're quite right for this quilt. Or maybe there just needs to be additional quilting surrounding and emphasizing the cables.

this was my first thought, too. maybe you can add scallops on each side of the cable to fill it up more. the cables you have done are done very well

My opinion only - - -

I understand the idea of curves to contrast with linear - but if it were mine - it would all be linear. Stitch in the ditch around every black piece - and a grid or something linear to fill up the white spaces.

Your cables are nicely done, but I would like straight lines better on this quilt.

Since you asked, I have to agree that linear quilting would have been more fitting for this quilt. The cables are nicely done though, just don't stay with the theme of FLW. Sorry

Just have to add, I recently auditioned some quilting on a quilt, micro quilting at that and did not like it. Can I say,
picking that out is a pain!

Maybe you could { Echo Quilt} along your cables to fill the space- give them some balance. They turned out nice, just kind of out of place- too narrow for the space

The cable softens the linear look of the rest of the quilt. I like it!

Normally I would say add curves to balance out the straight lines but that is what FLW is about. I think something like cross hatch or mimicking the chevron piecing would fit better. By the way, you did a nice job with the cable stitching
