It will probably be quilted in straight long lines lengthwise through as I want the end result to be kind of modern.
Once again I really do appreciate all your comments and I do think I will make another smaller quilt using turqouise/aqua as a background, think it would look stunning too. But for this one, I want to stick with the red/white/black theme.
Oh my goodness, so many opinions. On my screen, the original background on your original photo came out sort of beige and I liked it very much. I think the black or red makes it look very modern and striking. That might be a look that you like. I thought the beige looking background looked very good with your black and white strips. I did think that a piece of red might look good in a couple of your stripe pieces, especially if you want to use red in a border. I think it would look good. However, I really do like your curved black and white pieces.
