my neighbor came and took a look at the quilt laying on the floor. I might take her suggestions to make the whole border with stars, so now I am cutting fabric for 12 more stars and then we will see where the treble clef will fit in. thank you

No! Don't add abunch more stars...it looks lovely with the assymetric look.

I agree with stitch678 the current layout is fantastic it really sets the piano off. Quilt with an all over pattern like stippling so as not to detract from the rest of the design. Again this version looks the best.

I wouldn't add stars all around. It looks great as is. Love what you did with it, it's so awesome compared to what you started with. Great job!

I agree with this, wholehearedly. Usually I like a lot of negative space for quilting but I have to admit, I really love your new layout. The partial star border really draws the eye into the piano center, additionally with this new layout it really makes the piano the focal point of the quilt as was your original intention. I am thinking you want to add another border to get it up to size. I think your treble clefs would be great in an outer border or you can add some fabric to the sides of each treble clef to make them square and use them as corner stones in your outer most border. Keep showing us your progress. It is so inspiring to see how your quilt is developing.

​I liked it before but I love it with the asymmetrical stars added!

I agree also. This layout is great as is.
You said you plan to add a piano key border so perhaps you could
use the treble clefs as corner blocks.

I would also not add anymore stars. I think it would box in your beautiful piano. They way they are highlights it.
