I think that is a great idea Anael. Just stitch around the flowers and wind your way around the strips. It would be like using the templates.

I can FMQ on template lines, but that is about it. I think it is great that you can do the leaves, vines, flowers, etc FMQ. I don't think I have the nerve to try it, and don't have time to practice either!

Your quilting looks GREAT! I also agree vines on the print would be perfect.

I think your quilting in the white area is so lovely that you don't want distract too much from it in the blue area. I agree with vines and large leaves. Can't wait to see it finished
