I think I would do Echoing around the cross stitch pictures, and a crosshatch or a very simple swirl in the sashings. IMHO I think if you did the meandering over the whole quilt then it may take away from the cross stitching It is an absolutely beautiful quilt and I'm sure whatever you do will only enhance it.
