    Take a colored ultra fine point permanent marker, and draw quilting lines/designs onto these copies. Play around with them until you get a look that you like :D:D:D
    Now THAT is a great idea! I'm stuck on one myself!

    i'd just echo quilt - stitching to the left and right of a seam about 1/8th - 1/4 inch of each triangle/square.

    You could also quilt around each star
