Thanks, everyone! I just finished reading "Free motion quilting with Angela Walters" and Diane Gaudynski's "Guide to Machine Quilting". Those ideas are definitely in my head still! I'm going to go ahead and leave it as it is. Every single poster here had a point that I have taken into consideration but particularly Prism99 and ToniC. I think my husband will notice the more unusual quilting, i.e., the circles and serpentine stitch in the border but stippling in the block not so much.
