Have you seen the pattern that looks like fish scales? Kind of half circles. You could even do it with your walking foot if you aren't ready to to it with the free motion foot.
Love the quilt BTW.

Thanks everyone for all of the advice! I think I'm going to try a medium size meander to put some curves in it. I wish I could afford to have it professionally quilted so I don't mess it up, but I suppose I have to start somewhere!

Joann's is also another source for a GENERIC foot.
If it's a generic foot, the prices start at around $25 and go up from there. If you're lucky enough to have a Bernina, they'll sell it to you for over $135. :D
If you buy from one of the larger sellers (not someone selling a used one), you can write them with your machine information, and they should be able to tell you which foot you can use.
If you have a Pfaff with Dual Feed, I think it's possible to even do it without a special foot. I only quilted a small block once on a Pfaff, so I'm not really sure.
Most shops that sell machines stock the accessories. Again, just make sure it fits and works on your machine.
And that is a very lovely quilt you've made. Only your third? WOW!
