Default Quilting suggestions for my little elephant quilt?

I am making his quilt for my soon to arrive grandson.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]563632[/ATTACH]
The squares are 1 1/2", and the overall quilt is about 50" square. I want the elephant to stand out some. I will use separate quilting on the ear (light gray), black, and green (highlights). The sample had cross hatch quilting through the middle of every square - rather dull! I am a competent free motion quilter on my Sweet 16 sit down machine, and I have a bunch of rulers too. It is a baby quilt, so it needs enough quilting to stand up to frequent washing, but not so much that it would be stiff. I have sandwiched it already with Warm and Natural batting. Suggestions?
