    It is a beauty. The colors are so..... HAPPY! I don't do any of my own quilting so I can't help you there. You're ahead of me!

    This is a great, colorful, cheerful quilt. Stitching in the ditch will accent the squares. Maybe diagonal straight lines in one or two directions if you want something that highlights the colors more than the shapes.

    I would use a RAINBOW PRIMARY VERRIGATED thread with CURVY edge to edge quilting. The color changes will be random and the curve designs will contrast with the strong graphic lines of the squares. If you want a single color, white, black or grey.
