My large border fabric is a batik. I also used a very dark red batik in the cubes. I am still thinking about how best to quilt it. Any ideas?

I am far from being the one with knowledge as to how to quilt! I usually let my LAQ or handquilter suggest to me what to do. Though I am getting better and more knowledgable as to the what's!

For OBWs I'm wondering if you just go with stippling? though I really don't know! Maybe for your cubes, some outlining and/or echoing? I like outlining and echoing, to get things to puff up ... stippling just flattens it all together!

Love your quilt. I always appreciate when people show the before and after of the OBW, it just amazes me at the difference from cutting the fabric.
