I'm going to be starting a large Judy Niemeier quilt that will be ditched completely and custom quilted. I've done ditch work and custom quilting on several quilts in the past, though all were smaller than this one. My question is, should I ditch the entire quilt to stabilize it prior to starting any ruler work or custom quilting? I'm sure this is personal preference but I would like to know what others do and why.

Very pretty and I love the colors!
