You could just do an all over meander. Or a flower meander all over the quilt. That will bring in lost of curves.

Quilt it how ever it's going to be easier for you! When you say 'stretchy' is it minky fabric? It's really an eye catching quilt! With all the movement on the quilt, I think the quilting design will probably get lost in it!

Well, I'm sorry I took your post wrong. I thought you were just beginning to SEW! Wow, that is a pretty quilt. Forgive me? I sure hope so. Looks so pretty. Barny Maybe I'll learn to read things better.

Beautiful quilt! Think I would go with the Elmer's glue suggestion. Haven't tried it yet but yours seems a likely candidate.

I'd be sure to use a walking foot, unless you are free motion quilting. That will help ease the fabric along.

I also did not realize it was a top that was done - which is very attractive.

I think I would do stitch in the ditch. Then, if you feel compelled to do more, you could do some stuff on the black fabric.

Are you wanting the diamond shapes to stand out? Maybe a echoing of those. It is funny when you want your quilt to talk to you - and tell you what quilting would make it "more" attractive....lol. Great quilt, good luck.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions~I have such a problem getting my quilts to talk to me! Maybe I am just deaf

and Barny~no problems! I didn't word the question very well, and then the pic didn't post, and then......well you get the picture of the way my day was going!!!!!!
