I quilted a simple meander and varied the size based on the fullness of an area. You can see how the size changes here. I don't think it will be as noticeable after it's washed, and expect it will crinkle nicely.
Easing in some of that fullness!

An Antique Quilt
Chris and her mom, Julie brought me this quilt top. It was made by Julie's mother, probably 50-70 years ago. Of course it was hand pieced and the fabrics look to be quite worn. Julie wanted to have it quilted to give to her granddaughter as a wedding gift. It was a rush job as the only chance to get it to the happy couple was this week, otherwise it would need to be shipped overseas.

Ta-da! The backing is just muslin, as is the binding, which I put on last week.
