This is a beautiful quilt. I love the William Morris designs. I bought the 2nd book and am doing a nursery quilt. It is time consuming but oh so we'll woth the effort. You did a fantastic job. Did you machine stitch around the edges or do needle turn? Your colors are outstanding. I find choosing the quilting design a little scary after all the beautiful work and effort that one invests in making the top of the quilt.
I take a scrap of background fabric and stipple it then lay it on the top and see how it looks. Then do the same using echo sample. Thanks for sharing. I think sometimes less is more.
