I agree with the above ......you could run that diagonal all the way across the quilt rather than just the rail squares, if you don't want to stop-start. Since you already have hor/vert lines the bias drag of the diagonal should be controlled and not cause puckers.....I personally think 6" of open space is too much....jmho
