Default Help with SITD

I have a question I’m hoping someone could help me with. I am working on a queen-size log cabin barnraiser quilt, using the QAYG in sections method. I have all my blocks done and I have sewn together two sections with the batting (adding the backing later). I had planned on doing SITD around each log, however, this seems to be a monumental task – and I’ve only done one block!! On top of that I’m using invisible thread for the first time! What I’m wondering is if I only SITD around the center square and around the outside log of each block, would that be enough quilting to hold it together? I’m using Warm & White needled cotton batting, nylon thread in the top and cotton 50 wt in the bottom. I hope I’ve explained it well enough! Here’s a picture of the blocks laid out. Thanks in advance for any help!
