    It's beautiful!! I have made the same pattern and I like the way an overall meander sitch looks on this pattern. You could use a verigated thread to pull the color into the black. Great quilt.

    Your second close up with the purple flowers in it I would do the large tropical leaves I would use black thread on the black spaces. This would not be a pantograph. There are quilters on this board that love to do trades! Maybe you have something you'd like to trade for the quilting. I think your quilt is so STUNNING you need to have it finished with the perfect quilting. I usually like stack and whacks but yours IS GORGEOUS!!! I love how you did the border too. I am trading Charismah's quilting for mittens, so you never know what is trade worthy!!!

    That is beautiful and it makes me want to get my OBW blocks turned into the planned table runner and place mats.
    I have to finish up a baby quilt first since the baby is due soon and the OBW blocks are made from Christmas fabrics for myself.

    What kind of pattern is that? That is so cool but it looks hard to me. You did a good job.

    Maybe the background. It looks like navy? Or is it black? I love your Stack n Whack. I have gotten hooked on them lately. The 60 degree triangle, I have made 5 in the past month and love everyone. Such a surprise with every single block.

    Your fabric made a beautiful stack and whack. How about using a varigated thread with some of the colors in the blocks. I had one of my s & w's quilted with 3 different sizes of circles in the block then she free motioned a different design in the back ground. Thinking you could use the variegated thread on the black too!
