Hi -- thanks for the feedback. Yes it did have sashing and borders. I like the idea of SITD and then the shadow quilting around the figures. Thought about that myself. Also, I plan to lightly interface the back of each quilt block because a couple of them have holes to big to ignore. I will go with Hobbs wool.

I have another quilt the girls' aunt quilting for me. The theme is the Precious Moments figurines, which she also traced from a coloring book. Rather than the embroidery stitch as on the Muppet Baby blocks, she satin stitched all of the blocks - WOW! I never realized how much work she put into each of these quilts. And they are huge! At least full size. She made the sashings and borders 4" and 6" wide! The Precious Moments quilt it in pristine condition. I am so proud to have these... Will take process pics along the remake of the quilt.

Excited to see how it turns out.
