I think meandering..because you don't want to take away from the design..but you want to see quilting

I love your quilt. Have you considered straight lines throughout? Perhaps the size of the small white and red small fourpatches. Is that an inch?

I think I would do a straight diagonal through the little squares. And a pretty motif or meandering in the larger diamond shapes.

I think that I would use a combination of meandering and outline. I would need graph paper to sketch the quilting pattern before I could make up my mind what went where. No matter what you choose, I know it will be beautiful!

I hand quilted a somewhat similar one going diagonally through the blocks making 'X's.

I would stitch in the ditch if I could sew a quilt like that! It is stunning. Superb use of colors.
