I am a professional, so just take this for what its worth. I would do a small meander on the outside of the cat faces and inside I would echo quilt, just to give the faces "motion". But, any all over pattern will look great because there is so much going on with the kitties. Very, very cute quilt. You really cannot go wrong, the quilting should never take center stage to the piecing anyway. Post a pic when done! Happy Quilting! Michelle
