Whatever you do to quilt it, it will need to really play off your awesome appliqué work! I have a Morris appliqué book and would love to try this someday. I can only dream that it will turn out as beautifully as yours has!

I love your quilt, and although I am not as experienced as the others about quilting, I can invision the echoing or stippling around the appliques so they will pop. Oh it is beautiful -

I know it would look better to have a LAQ do it, there are some awesome quilters on this board. Charisma has worked her magic on a couple of mine. But, due to finances, I will have to muddle through. I would just have to pack it away if I didn't try my hand at it. Wish me luck.

Your quilt is stunning. I think I would look at a few books or pics online before deciding on quilting. It is sew gorgeous, you really need to give it some thought.

Your quilt is absolutely stunning. It would lend itself to echo quilting around all those wonderful flowers. It would make the flowers pop out. That is a traditional application.
