I like that wavy stitch, did you freehand it or use a template and draw it?

I have made several of these, and I just do a basic meander FMQ over the entire top. Looks great, and quilts up quickly. Sorry no picture, but they've all held up well to machine washing and drying.

I just freehanded it. I had a bad experience marking a quilt so I try to avoid it. The flowers were drawn on waxed paper and quilted through it. Just use a permanent marker and let it dry so there's no color picked up by the needle and thread.
