It is a awesome pattern and most I have seen are just stitched down the seams. I did see one that pebbled the paths but boy that would be work! SITD would be fairly difficult if you followed the paths, turning the quilt. I think I might be tempted to quilt it in a grid that matched the path width. Yes, you would be stitching through the paths but if you matched the thread it would not be noticeable. It would end up looking like a large graph paper but that wouldn't detract from the pattern in my opinion.

You didn't mention if you would be quilting it on your sewing machine or a long arm. If you have a long arm, anything goes.

I would do SITD doing it free motion if your quilting it on your DSM. Good Luck!!

I am not a FMQ, I only do straight lines, SID, etc. but there is a pattern and dag if I know the name where they are blocks and rectangles, all continuous sewing. They are random sizes, I know I saw it on a you tube. Go thru you tube and search fmq'ng I think I would like that design on it, if I was that good.

The 3D effect is so powerful I think I would just outline each shape to make that floating effect even stronger. Really love the colors you chose.

I'd run it right beside one side of the white lines or maybe one right down the middle of the white lines. It is a beautiful pattern and so evenly spaced, it would be close enough. You definitely don't want to mess up the 3D effect.
