I hope I haven't bitten off more than I can chew!

I love the quilting as it is in the book, but didn't want to ruin the effect of my "poker chip" look. I think a combination of machine/hand quilting would work. Stitch in the ditch and outline with the machine and handquilt something in the center of the hexagons? I do love your colors, though! They are so pretty whatever placement you decide will be beautiful.
Oh yeah, no way was I telling him it was an Amish Wedding Ring....no telling what he might have done with it LOL

Now Lori...I think the peace signs would be really cute! Her taste might change over the years and the quilt might not always be center stage though....now if you did something like a cool art deco design...it might not get religated to the closet (after it was much loved of course)...I still love it!
