HELP: suggestions for quilting a One-Block Wonder quilt
It's ready to be pinned and the more I look at it, the more I have no idea where to go from here to finish it. I am not a fancy quilter, usually just do a free motion meander, but am thinking that possibly this needs a bit more than than. I bought a variegated purple thread that I think will look nice. But now what? Thanks for any help you can share with me.

I would do large, soft petals following the basic shape of the triangles of the pieces. Maybe a smaller petal inside to add a bit more quilting if you like. That would soften the triangles and play up the floral prints.

I haven't done one yet, but I've always thought that the blocks are so busy your intricate quilting would be lost. I wouldn't want all the work of the piecing to be overshadowed by fancy quilting. I like the idea of the all-over meandering.
