    If you are going to hand quilt, echo and outline stitching comes to mind.

    Your quilt is beautiful. I would like the pattern and I would just quilt around the out side of the triangles and then in the strips setting it together.

    At least I know before it was quilted and can fix it now if I choose. Really appreciate the help!
    IMHO- I'd leave it and call the quilt "No body's Prefect"

    You could always sign that piece and make it look as tho it was done on purpose!

    Wish I had one just like it to start quilting on tonight! Enjoy!

    And I, too, would just outline your pieces, and possibly pick up the suggestion to quilt 1/4" in from the edges of each block. There's a lot of quilting there!

    it helps to use that "thread heaven" or whatever. The label has worn off mine.
