I think I would echo the garment edges but do minimal quilting on the garments following their shapes. I do love this quilt! thanks for sharing it.

I can see you've already stitched in the sashings, so an echo of each garment should suffice. you can echo two or more times if you like to help fill in the blocks a bit. cute quilt!!

great quilt! you could also do cross hatching in the open areas. would be a lot of starting and stopping though. perhaps consider straight lines like sunbeams?
