Need stencil source or ideas for Turning Twenty quilting
I don't wan't to stipple or meander or SID or do diamonds and will be quilting it on My Janome (not long arm).
I could figure out something for the 10" squares, but can't figure out what to do about the rectangles.
it is all Neptune Batiks if that helps with the ideas.

I would do "waves" across the quilt, which also happens to be very easy. See my post in this recent thread:

Here is a website that shows kind of what I have in mind:

This one adds bubbles (have to scroll down to the very bottom of the page):

Here's one that is more evenly geometric:

I know that the Crafty Gemini does something she calls a sea urchin that she free motions and is a fairly simple design. Sorry I don't have the link saved. Hope you find something that inspires you.

If you use a block design for the square, then I would consider a border stencil for the rectangle. These designs can be adjusted for length. However when using distinctive designs such as this I would set the block units in a structured way to give a uniform overall design.
Have I read your post correctly that you want to quilt individual units and not all over?
