    It would depend on how much more work you want to do on it.

    Sure is beautiful, no matter how you quilt it.

    Wow, what a lot of hours you have put into that quilt. It's gorgeous!! Do you hand quilt or quilt on your DSM? Speaking as a longarm quilter, heavy custom quilting with tons of SID, background fillers stitched in etc. But considering that some areas are pretty "busy" you certainly do an edge to edge design. Whichever design you choose your quilt is going to be a knockout..it already is!!

    This looks like an award winning quilt - I'd take it to a long arm quilter if I could afford it. In my mind I see lots of different designs going into it's many beautiful elements.
    Hope you can share the final results on this one with us :P

    I think lots of feathers in and around the blocks and background would be stunning.
    Also taking it to a long arm quilter might be the best idea. It's very large to tackle on your own domestic machine.

    Considering the variety of the quilt-a border to border design might work well with it.

    This is really spectacular. If it was me, I'd be ditch quilting the straight bits, with free motion on the cream and borders. Whatever you decide, I'm sure it's going to be beautifully enhanced.
