    Flowers would be nice, but I like a really nice quilting motif to fill the with areas.

    I think it is perfect the way it is. Someday I want
    to make one of these Irish Chain Quilts.

    It is perfect - if you appliqué flowers they might draw attention away
    from the soft subtlety of your Irish chains. I think you should leave it
    as is and congratulate yourself on a quilt well done.

    I would be beautiful either way but the white makes it look very crisp and clean.

    IMHO -- leave it alone. I love applique but this speaks for itself!!
