Just finished quilting mine, dark brown batik with a lighter tan, gold backing. I will be putting the binding on it in the next week or so. Didn't consider it a really difficult or intimidating quilt; just take your time and follow the instructions one step at a time. I hand-quilted mine, and it took 2 complete spools of thread to do so - very densely quilted, maybe too much. Will post a picture of the finished product very soon.
