I was just wondering what you all thought - if I should hand quilt it or machine quilt it? Silk or cotton? These beginner samplers haven't really spoken to me like - put an an all over stitch pattern or stitch just here and there.

I've been practicing both machine and hand quilting and would like to get these done and put to rest. I really enjoy both the hand and machine quilting process and seem to be making tops to just quilt them. There are just so many choices out there with quilt as desired and while I love the quilting and auditioning of styles, I sometimes find it hard to make a decision.

I'm thinking of just machine quilting them in the light areas and putting them to rest.
