How have you quilted your Twister Pinwheel quilt?

I love this pattern, but am at a loss as to how to quilt it to get the full impact of it.
Free motion meandering? Grid? Stitch in the Ditch?......What have you all done with it?
Thanks.

Mountain Mist used to make a fusible batting. I did not like it for quilts, but for small pieces as used in purses, it worked fine. It's not as firm as fusible fleece.
