BeckySt, It was your beautiful chopsticks quilt that inspired me to make mine! That pattern never would have hit my radar if not for your gorgeous example. For those interested, Becky's wowser version is pictured here:

I loved how Becky quilted hers and also her fabric selections. I am thinking I may be going more in a direction of Green Fairy's style in my quilting. That solid cream screams to me for some ruler work and intense fill treatments
CarolynMT, you bring up some excellent points. This quilt is intended to be gifted to my supervisor. She is the sole "girl" in a house full of boys! Even the dog is a male. So I wanted something fresh, airy and girly for her. I have never been to her home so I don't know how structured her decor is. She may just opt to keep it in the office with her, as our office gets pretty chilly in the winter time (big old drafty windows in an historic building) and a quilt would be nice to toss over her lap on those brutal sub-zero days. But I want it big enough to use for napping under the sofa at home if she decides that is where she wants to use it. It won't be done for this year's Christmas so I will be gifting it for next year. Gives me plenty of time to decide on quilting designs and even more time to execute. Given everyone's reaction here and the quilting ideas I have for it, I think random will be the way to go. This way I can go with many different motifs and fillers in those triangles but unify it in the sashing bits like Becky did hers.
Thank you everyone for your input to help me make my decision.
