How to quilt?
Please give me recommendations on how to quilt this quilt. Backing is a solid blue. I was thinking of SID on the diagonal but don’t know if i’ll Like it since the rectangles will not be stitched all the way around . Yesterday ekuw (sorry if I misspelled), posted a lovely D9P that she did straight stitching about an inch apart. Would that look ok.? Should I change direction as she did? Any help will be appreciated. [ATTACH=CONFIG]600342[/ATTACH]

I like to use some kind of curves or feathers or wavy on a really straight stitched quilt. To me, when you start doing some straight stitching on a very dominant pattern like you have, sooner or later it becomes obvious that they don't line up with each other. There are many good pantograph patterns out there. Find one you think you like and use wht you can do of the design. Urban Elementz has more ideas than I can ever use. https://www.urbanelementz.com/quilti...raphs-e2e.html
