    I love this quilt. The border is so cool. It looks like the squares are dancing around the quilt. I would love to see it finished and hear what you have decided to do. Whatever you decide it will be very pretty.

    I love the Album Block pattern!! It's one of my most favorite of all patterns -- especially love the antique Album quilts! I love crosshatching or anything curvaceous would give a nice balance to all the squares! I would SITD to give stability. Want to make one of these quilts one day as it makes a great scrap quilt! The border treatment balances the blocks well and gives an excitement to the quilt without distracting. You did a great job -- it's just gorgeous!!! :D :D :thumbup:

    Was it very hard and was it done with strips? Very very pretty.

    Definitely stitch in the ditches. Keep the rest simple to not detract from the wonderful piecing.

    I love the quilt, but have no idea how you should quilt it. My machine quilting is pretty much limited to STID, so that's probably what I'd do--not because it would look best, but because that's all I can do!

    I would SID as a design would take away from the design of the beautiful blocks.

    I'd be doing the ancient Greek geometric patterns over that lot.
