    Beautiful quilt and a great job of selecting all the colors. Meandering would add fun to the already exciting quilt.

    Again, WOW, so many wonderful comments and ideas...no wonder I enjoy this site so much! I will check out your suggestions before deciding which way to go...my DH wants me to meander...he is not the best at color selections but he did suggest the printed lattice work instead of solids. Thanks again!

    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
    Sorry you misunderstood my comment, but I was agreeing with your suggestion 100%, lol. I think your your idea sounds perfect.

    How about going round and around in the strips of the block. Jan

    I love, love, love your quilt. I think it is screaming for meandering. I wouldn't know how to fathom a pattern for this type of quilt.

    Somehow I like the idea of five pointed wonky stars in each center block....

    I think the meandering would be great. It sure is a pretty quilt.
