Default Backing

Well, I am finally getting around to being ready to quilt my D9P. Of course I had to piece the backing and a symmetrical kinda gal I decided to put two seams running the length of the fabric. Well after doing this, while they weren't in your face, I decided to try out the embroidery functions on my 'girl'. This is what the seams look like, I actually like it, what do you think?



The variegated thread used for the embroidery is the same thread that is going to be used for the hand quilting.

Here is a bad picture of the quilt top:



Each yellow block is getting a maple leaf and each orange block is getting a oak leaf. The rectangles will be getting branches and the small squares will be getting acorns. Still not sure what I am going to do in the borders yet, thinking it will either be feathers or something else that looks organic falls in line with nature.
