Do some straight lines following the pattern. If you don't do something the large unquilted spots will sag frm gravity. Ask me how I know,lol. Love it

Beautiful. I think I would do a minimum of straight line quilting following the lines of the rectangles around the plain white spaces.

What about quilting the big spaces by hand only taking the backing and the batting? Would that work? I'm afraid of not respecting the style of the painting if I put lines where it should be even. The batting I used sould be quilted every four inches. My big white piece is 14 by 8! AAAAA Merdouille (mild swearing in french!!!) Such a rookie error.

very cool! speaks tons for the math involved in quilting. Love that you took on the challenge.
Reminds me of a Tokyo subway quilt I saw once on Oh Franson! I think.
