A bit stumped...
I made this small quilt based on A Tula Pink pattern in very unconventional baby colors for my very unconventional hair stylist who is expecting her second boy this fall. I am now stumped as how it should be quilted. any ideas? What color binding? Thanks

You could do straight line quilting going horizontally following the up and down of the chevron pattern. I just did one with lines 1" apart. You can see a picture of it in the Pictures section of this Board titled "Simple Chevron Quilt for Charity".

I like the idea of the straight lines following the lines of the chevrons, but I agree that some curves would be nice. How about making the straight lines at different distances apart, and between some of them put curves of various sorts - circles, waves, spirals, etc.
I love the quilt and the fabrics in it, even if the colors are unconventional for a baby. I think the binding could be in any of the fabrics in the quilt, except the white.

What about the brown like the bears for the binding? Or a small print that reads brown?
