For Judy in Ar .... Diagonal Squiggles

A quilting idea that I would use on Beth's Diagonal 9-Patch that she shared in her photo would be what I call a diagonal squiggle. Imagine that you were going to just do diagonal cross-patch kind of quilting on Beth's block starting in that red square in the upper right and stitching diagonally across the block. But .... straight lines would be boring so imagine sharp squiggly back and forth wiggles (perhaps only one or two in the small square) like drunken skiers schussing down the mountain. Depending on the size of your squares you could keep those diagonal squiggles inside the theme fabrics. Variegated thread could add some excitement. My idea for quilting on Beth's block would leave her cream fabrics untouched; the quilting stitches would be on the brightly colored fabrics.
