    This some flannel fabric I found on clearance. How would you quilt this? I was thinking it would be easy to follow the squares pattern, or maybe out line each cabin???

    Otlining the cabins would give you a great look on the back. If you undulated stitching in the sashing, it would look like roads from the back.

    I'd have to say that it depends on how much quilting you actually want to do.

    I'd definitely outline the houses and possibly outline the trees as well.

    But the quilt is lovely.
