The quilt top is finished! I ended up with a wide darker green border then a border of the original fabric.

I have a nice piece of cotton that is tan with tiny orange, green and purple swirly flowers that is going to make the perfect backing for this. The colors match wonderfully. I think I'm even going to cut it to fold over to the front for the binding. Not totally sure yet, may do that in the dark green.

I wanted to get teal, but I decided to stick with stash and my daughter said this worked great. I needed greeen to be my 'pop' color and it really did!

It is 84" x 96"

Will start quilting and binding this weekend and then will take one final picture before shipping it and my nieces quilt off to my sister :)
