    I had not thought of this, but I do like it! The red in the strips has a sorta star design and this repeats the idea. Thank you!

    I like the idea of cross hatching in the white background and then a decorative swirl in the sashing.

    I would quilt it like this! I outlined all the redwork and did a different fill in each one.
