Christine, Yours is awesome! Just love the black binding and if you don't mind, I think I will use black too. How did the stitch in the ditch go? I only have the flannel backing and it is heavy enough. I got mine sandwiched with just a pieced flannel backing and no batting. thinking about how to quilt.....all over free motion? in the ditch? maybe wavy lines on the diagonal. just not sure. So many seams in this that just the wavy lines on the diagonal will be easiest with something special in the "black box tops:....would like to emphasize them a bit.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
