I do think it's busy, but I love it. I wouldn't pick the white print to use in making a hunter's star simply because the print is so big, you lose your pattern definition. I do totally love that print though. I also like the idea of a smaller white border, followed by a larger one in your very darkest pink in the print, or maybe even the tan looking color if you like the way that looks.

If I were going to quilt this, I would do an outline stitch, about 1/4" away from the center star and then make a random loose loop on the way to the next star. I would keep the loops going in different directions and different sizes and shapes, just as if you had doodled them on with a pencil, also keeping the lines between the stars and loops loose and curvey, as the lines around the star centers will be straight and pointed.

LOL, Hope I explained it well enough, I can see it perfectly in my mind.
