Depends on how much quilting you like (and the batting you're using).
I usually go for dense quilting, but that's just me.
I think yesterday you wrote that they were 9.5" blocks, so you should be fine.
I sometimes use the Bernina #4 stitch to give it a little extra movement.
Most machines have something similar.
It's just as easy/as much work as a straight line.
