I'd shadow quilt around the squares and triangles. Or you could shadow quilt around the triangles and make an X thru the 4patch squares.

I'd find a border stencil to use in the white areas/sashing.

The rest of the borders could be done in a cross-hatching or a combination of other border stencils.

I realize that you are wanting to machine quilt this, but maybe this can give you some ideas.
Thank you! What is shadow quilting?
