I am making a quilt for my niece who is expecting in early February. I was expecting to have until December or January to finish my quilt, well surprise she is coming to town this weekend and so the shower is this week. So I am a little pressed for time. I made D4P from the fire truck fabric with red from that same fabric line and I am pleased with how the quilt top turned out. I used the stripe fabric to make the prairie points. I was going to try to applique on the back a fire truck or something in the firefighting family... but I am not having any luck. Its probably me and because I am trying to rush... anyway I have given up on the applique back because I don't have much time left. BUT since I had the idea of doing something special on the back, now the back feels boring and naked just plain. Does anyone have any ideas how I can put a little interest on the back of the quilt? without being too complicated. I do have some of the solid teal that is the background on the fire trucks as well. I just have no ideas right now
