How would you quilt this?
When it comes to the actual quilting I generally stitch in the ditch. I thought about a large stipple on this since the quilt is for me & I need stipple practice. Maybe I would do a little "do-dah" in each corner & down the outside border but for the overall quilt I'm really at a loss of what to do. The actual quilting part of a quilt is not easy for me so I would like a few suggestions.

I think I'd stretch myself and try something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7u96JM3Q1Vo
Thanks for all the input. I'm leaning toward the stippling but I'll keep it up on my design wall for a few days to think about it.

For that pattern, stitch in the ditch would look nice. Also straight line stitching on the vertical lines like in a modern quilt would look good too. I would want the piecing to shine rather then the quilting.

what about doing continous curves --a gentle curve from corner to corner--I'd go diagonal across the interlocked squares. those are pretty easy to do with just a walking foot (not FMQ) and then the edges maybe a meander around the points. Neat quilt!
