Default How do you decide how to quilt a top?

My tops are piling up because I cannot decide how to do the quilting. I have a Voyager 17 midarm that I have been practicing on (have some thrift sheets on the frame with W&N batting). Precision is not my middle name, but I have discovered that using Superior Bottom Line helps my quilting look a lot better.

In the past I was happy just quilting loops (which I tend to make really close together) with Glide thread. They worked well for wonky quilts. I just want to make better use of my frame setup, plus I think now that I am not so tense about the quilting I can branch out and improve my skills. With the Bottom Line thread, my McTavishing actually looks okay, as do my loops, etc. -- not perfect, not great, but definitely okay.

However, now I have several tops I actually like and I cannot decide what to do!

How do you decide?
