    Easiest with walking foot would be SID (stitch in the ditch). Not sure how big blue squares are, but ck batting quilting recommendation. Quilt up/down and across. Lots of straight lines, no marking.

    I just meandered the one I did in that pattern. I am not a big fan of SID, but that is my HO.

    How about just straight line quilting using your walking foot and doing a 1/4 in. from each seam, lot easier than sid. Its so hard to stay in the ditch, and doesnt look so good when you miss.

    I like the quarter inch from seam too. It's a lot easier.

    Ditch would be fast and easy for this quilt, which is really nice and warm looking
