Whew!!! That is gorgeous, you did a fabulous job on it! If it were mine... :D (and I'll be happy to send you my addy :mrgreen: ) I would echo once around the applique, then I would put together 1 of the shapes-either the flower by itself or the triangle- of the applique in the "large" intersections" to form a square, then I would use a double vine in all the open sashing spaces. I would quilt in the ditch in the border...but I still consider myself a newbie...so I'm sure there are much better solutions out there than mine. Heck...just send it to me...I'll think about how to quilt it :D :D
