Default Nora’s on point quilt top

Hello everyone! Nora is my eleven year old (will be the 26th of July) granddaughter. She started this top August 2023 but only got to work on it when she comes here. She was very good to keep her seam allowances even, but I trimmed her edges after her seams, with the pinking shears for her. I did that and would press her seams or rows while she was sewing the next one. She finished today because she’s been able to work on it since Monday. Her mom is away this week so their dad brings them here while he’s working. ( Mom drove the church bus with teenagers to church camp in another state.) Anyway, it allowed Nora time to finish her top. I asked her if I could show all of you and so she’s looking forward to reading what you think of her first quilt. I will do the actual quilting once we decided if she wants Minky or batting and cotton backing. Here are a few pictures I took over time and when I remembered.-lol- It a heavy load so look for finish below. Oh I also will square her outer edges so she will end up with triangle edges. I may quilt it before trimming , not sure yet.
