    Welcome from WI. Your first quilt is beautiful, love the colors. Think pink would be good for the binding. Good luck with the quilting.

    It's beautiful - very complicated pattern for a first quilt. Great JOB!

    The black border and pink flange sounds perfect. That is a Gerry impressive first quilt, wonderful work and looking forward to seeing more.

    Thanks everyone for your kind words and opinions! I checked out that tutorial for the binding with the flange and I really like that, I might go with that. I have never done a binding before, is this flange a more difficult binding then if I just do one color? I have read alot of tutorials but am nervous to mess my quilt up. Maybe I should practice on something smaller first.

    On a side note, I went back to JoAnn's tonight to buy the backing fabric that I had seen last time I was there and they didn't have it anymore! Booooo! They didn't have anything that I really liked. I am bummed.

    Very pretty. I am working on my first quilt as well. Certainly no where near as complicated as this one! I don't really know enough to comment on how to do anything but I like the way it looks now.
