I agree...the straight lines for SITD for much harder than doing a large all over meander. Most batting you can go 4-10" between quilting...get creative...go diagonal through the blocks. I love the D9P pattern and have quilted it a bunch of ways. It is easy to do them.

I sitch in ditch and the large square, run stitching in one fourth parallel fashion not checker board.. just one same direction for all.
I back stitch then move over to another area and clip the extra threads to get good set on stitch in ditch.
fast, easy and pretty on back too..
Engineer back ground. like the straight lines.. :0)
