    Your quilt top is beautiful! Firrst check the quilting requirements on the batt you are going to use. If it says up to 10 inches apart, I think I would stitch in the ditch along the 8 inch block lines on the diagonal. This would give you a large crosshatch pattern. After that was done, if I still had time, I would go back and either hand quilt or machine quilt a little more.

    What about concentric circles like when rain droplets hit a pond?

    Beautiful quilt. I love your color choices. I don't have any quilting ideas either. I'm sure whatever you do will be gorgeous.
