I have made a baby blanket for my sister. It is a pinwheel pattern and turned out cute. This is only my second quilt so I need some help with ideas for how to quilt it. I have a machine that will do a few of the decorative stitches. My mom said I should do in the ditch around each of the finished blocks. The last one I did I tied but I think that would take away from this quilt. Any ideas.

That quilt is so pretty!!! I love all the pastels. I was considering making one of these this year (I have the need to make several baby quilts this year) and I was planning to do traditional stitching in each triangle.

Very nice quilt. I like the colors and the pattern you chose. I would quilt just inside the white triangles. That should make the pinwheel colors stand out more. I really like prairie points also.
