How to quilt this?

I love your quilt. I have a similar panel with Bears on it. I am starting on it as soon as I get back from Buffalo. It's for my dad.
Ladies thank you for your input. I too will be using some of these suggestions.

With the cross-hatching you want to keep a long seam. The way I would approach it is to mark the hatch pattern and sew it in a zig-zag configuration. Then when you get to the bottom, turn the quilt, travel stitch a bit and repeat the zig-zag. Hope that makes sense.

That is what I have done...I got started on this part over the weekend... decided I liked the zig zag loook better than the XX...so now I am contemplating my next area
