Default Quilting Ideas Needed For Pineapple Blocks

Hi everyone. This is my first PP project and I'm happy with it but I don't know how I should quilt it.
I'm not very good at FMQ but I just bought a new Bernina 770QE that has the BSR so I think it may go fairly well.
Mookie wouldn't get off! [ATTACH=CONFIG]613917[/ATTACH]

Thanks!!!!!

Oh and it's wrinkled too!

you did a great job on the piecing. i would probably do an all over meander or something simple so as not to distort the great block shapes

Your top has been cat scanned! Beautiful pineapples! I find that an all over meander or similar does not distract from an intricate pattern. I might use a variegated thread.
If you want to custom quilt it, a SITD concentric spiral but following the pattern might be nice.

Your quilt looks very pretty and I think an all over design would be nice. Those fur babies sure seem to like our quilts when we lay them on the floor!!!!

Looks great mostly all I do is a meander. I like the looks and I like doing it.

Oh and your Mookie looks so much like my kitten who is 20 years all and going strong..

Haha! He's a little rascal. I imagine he'd probably sit there and let me do it

If you don’t want to do a meander and want fairly dense quilting you could do continuous curves in each piece. Just do an ark from corner to corner to corner.

Susie, that is gorgeous. I Love the colors. Well Mookie might set there and let you - til the foot or needle hit something 'vital'~ like his foot or tail.
