Any ideas why I can't see this quilt? Gremlins in my computer perhaps?

are you long arm quilting, domestic machine quilting or hand quilting

my first thought is to do a distinctive design (block design) over the star blocks then a running vine down each of the squares. Perhaps a meandering in the surrounding light sextions but not too close which would change the dimension of the overall look. My general rule is to do a consistent densisty overall the quilt. not too quilt more dense in some areas than others. There are many stencils that would fit in the blocks.

Love the colors!

You can erase the marker with a piece of batting. This allows you to audition quilting designs without harm to the quilt.

Nice quilt

Border the plastic in some blue painter's masking tape - will keep you inside the plastic. Use crayola washable markers! :)

I don't have any idea for a design but I would love to know the pattern. Your's is lovely.

Love the quilt. What about a meandering/stippling with stars instead of loops.
