I like that idea. I'm not sure that all-over meandering is going to do full justice to this fabulous quilt. Your color choices have worked so beautifully together and the end result is something I would love to have in my own home - thank you for the inspiraton.

It is not all over meandering - it is a definite spiral in each block and the meandering in the sashing and border - Actually you could use two different colors for the quilting. Edie

The design is really prety I think large meandering would look great.

Personally I would do spirals in each block and straight quilting in the sashing. I think that would look awesome.

Love the quilt. What's the difference between meandering and quilting?
