    What kind of machine do you have? Some machines have a walking foot, which might work, but there are a lot of curves. The curves mean you probably want to have the feed dogs down and do FMQ as a simple echo quilting around each curved area and a straight line quilting for the straight edges.

    I agree with HillCountryGal - the quilt is gorgeous and I too would hand quilt it.

    I sew on a Pfaff, which does have a walking foot. Whatever I end up doing, I certainly plan to practice first. I don't want to end up messing this up.
