Stitch happy has "block specific" quilting patterns. I haven't bought any yet, but I do browse often!

I know what you mean about feeling intimidated, since that's the way I always feel at quilt shows. Try to get to the other side, though, and that's to feel inspired. I also have a longarm, and there are so many techniques and skills to learn that I try to concentrate on practicing some new skill on each quilt. I really enjoyed Kimmy Brunner's Machine Quilting with Templates class on Craftsy, and that's a technique that would lend itself nicely to a Hunter's Star.

I am able to do a good meander but thought I might like something different. Would like to see some of yours that are done.

I would google hunter star quilt images and see how others have done it or search it on pinterest to see some ideas

Welcome from Michigan.....Personally, I think the quilting can 'make' the quilt so I understand you waiting to decide what you want to do. It often takes me awhile to pick what I think will be perfect. I do think searching for images of your pattern might help. Whatever you choose will be wonderful..... and will help you move on to the next masterpiece.

Welcome from Illinois! I don't have a long arm but wouldn't know what to do with it if I did! I am not the most mechanical person on this board but I have learned so much here!

Well, you are two steps ahead of me --you have a long arm and you have a quilt that is ready to be quilted!! Good luck finding a design for your quilt.
