It's a lovely quilt. When I think fairies I think magical - like fairy dust or sparkly tiny stars. What about using a metallic thread around the fairy with some tiny stars swirling around. Fairies also make me think of the forest. Maybe to copying the a flower motif already used and leaves in the large open spaces would play on the whole woodland fairy and birds pictured in the quilt.

Sorry, no ideas for the quilting, but I just wanted to say that the quilt is lovely. Your daughter will be delighted by this whimsical piece!

That is just beautiful. I would echo around the figure, leaves and birds and stipple the rest.

I have no idea about the quilting. I cant express how perfect your wall hanging is for a girly girl. My DGD is exactly the same.
