    I think these look great with anything. On most of mine I have just done a line of quilting on each side of each seam. I recently saw a similar quilt on display at a quilt shop that was quilted with a "fancy" stitch that was an S type zigzag stitch. I think a lot of machines will make a stitch like that. They placed it right down the middle of the row.

    I did one with a simple meander. If I do another one, I will do a wobble stitch down the middle of each row.

    Since all the lines on that quilt are side to side, I think some lines on the diagonal would be great (probably wavy lines, straight lines being much too hard, LOL).

    "wobble stitch" is exactly what I was trying to describe!
