Quilting suggestions
 
I made this top and I can't figure out what to do to quilt it. My skills with FMQ are very limited. Thoughts?

I have seen a similar pattern done with a walking foot going thru the diagonal of each color following the flow of the design.

Here is a link to Eddie's.

What about a vertical wave?

That is a perfect quilt for vertical straight lines or a vertical wavy lines. Nice job. Oh, another option would be straight lines in an inverted "V" pattern, to follow your piecing. Like a straight line chevron pattern.

I would probably go with an all-over meander to soften the vertical lines. Wouldn't need to be very specific, just kind of wavy all over.

I agree. Think of it as a Bargello and follow the soft curve with you walking foot.
