Default Haphazard straight line quilting query.

I have a quilt which I would like to quilt with straight lines travelling at all different angles across and up and down the quilt. Sort of like how a bunch of sticks would like when dropped from a height if that makes any sense. To do this...how important is it to still work from the centre out of my quilt top? Could I start at an edge instead? Could I just sew the lines in a random order all over the top? Would it be best to sew a few straight lines from top to bottom across the quilt to stabilise it first? I have basted the quilt with pins about every 2-3 inches....no spray baste used. All advice gratefully received.
