    Love the quilt and I like #1 setting but I think it should be bigger, it looks off being so small.

    Wow I love your fabric and colors. I like the top block option best, it makes my eyes gently move around the corner. Would love to see the rest of it.

    Well I could do that but I think I will stick to the block I have. Still taking consensus as to which way the white is prefered. Thinking once it is bound the white block in the corner outside will look the best.

    I had posted about a week ago the complete quilt with the wavy borders. I think the headline was something with boo boo in it. I will post another pic after I finish the top and before I quilt it.

    So you are saying you don't like the pieced corner stone block? You think it should be solid?

    I think the corner of the inner border should be like the other squares and the outer border plain.

    I agree that the binding will "finish" off the little white square in the outer border but I don't think it needs the little white square. It tends to draw my eye away from the beautiful blocks and fancy pieced inner border. The final border is the frame for a beautiful quilt and gives the eyes a chance to rest before being drawn back into the beautiful blocks and pieced inner border.
