I'm in the no to the cross hatching stitch.
Wondering how a zig-zag would look. If you stitched (think how rick rack looks) around each square... *take the square with the giraffe. Start your stitch in the far corner, then straight up to the blue block, then back to the edge again. Am I making sense? No matter how you choose to quilt it... it's really cute. And I'll bet will be used and cherished for a long time.
**Now that I go back and study the quilt a bit more.. that won't work! Sorry.
