I would tie in the centers of the pinwheels and the centers of the cornerstones. You really don't need to tie the corners of the pinwheel blocks since they are so close to the cornerstones. If your batting requires more, I'd go for the center of the sashing rectangles.

I love the old look. You did a great job & many old quilts were just tied. I use crochet thread doubled & a square knot.I would do the center of the pinwheels. & tie the borders randomly.Too many knots might not look so good. After you do the centers you can use your own judgement.This is my recomendation.
