    I would stitch in the ditch too. Anything else will just detract from the pretty hexagons. Earlier today I saw a quilt here on the board that just had wavy lines (3 of them) stitched the length of the border. I really liked the way it looked. But I also like feathers. Depends on how much you have machine quilted.

    I too like stitch in the ditch around the hexagons. I don't know about the border.

    Came out very pretty. I always FMQ and I think that the curved lines of a meander would offset the angles of the hexagons.

    I think stitch in the ditch on the diagonal would be nice. Beautiful runner.

    Very pretty! I agree with SITD the hexes & something curvy in the border.
