good idea thank you

awesome thanks for the pictures, great ideas. I do like the first one too and the last one looks to be easier for me if I don't want to use a ruler to make them straight like the first one. Did you do anything in the black diamonds?

I SITD the black diamond and did a straight line down the middle to get to the next diamond. I kept my quilting simple since it was so big to quilt on a sewing machine. Since you have a long arm, do what you are good at.
