    Stitch in the ditch is all I have done so far, so I may not be much help.
    If you don't get more helpful replies, maybe you could type "quilting" in the search box and check out those threads for ideas.
    I need lots of practice before branching out past the S.I.T.D. :-D

    Stitch in the Ditch would be best for your first quilt. I love your colors and you did a very nice job piecing it.

    I would stich that one with either Clam Shells or the Baptist Fan. Both would look real nice on your quilt and shouldn't bee too expensive to have done.

    if you can't do fmq or swirls, just to diagonal lines. lots of them. coming from one corner and radiating out, then more from the side, etc. Till you fill the quilt. easy and different.

    I think an all over stipple would be good.

    I'd head to my favorite quilter, look over all her all-over designs and pick the one I felt matched the best! Something swirly or flower like! :-D
