Have you considered a quilt as you go method? If I read your post correctly you haven't made the quilts yet, QAYG is one method to quilt. The nice thing about QAYG, when you are done constructing the quilt you are done quilting it at the same time. I used the Fun and Done method from Bayside quilting on the quilt that I made. It turned out lovely. Bayside quilting has several patterns available if you need a pattern. I made my own pattern, but, if you need a pattern, they have several for sale.
