    I've shown this top before and I'm now ready to machine quilt it. But I'm not sure what machine quilting pattern I should attempt. Anyone have any ideas?

    I hand quilt. If I were doing it I'd choose a center motif either baskets or wreathes. Then feathers or vines for the long rectangles and probably flower corners for the triangles. But I don't know how it works if you are machine quilting.

    Beautiful quilt!! I also do mostly hand quilting. But here's a site that has all kinds of stencils, maybe you'll find a pattern that you'll like.
