Hi and welcome from North Carolina! Your quilt is beautiful! Wonderful job! You've come to the right place for all kinds of information. A very inexpensive way to built a stash is to visit thrift shops, if there are any in your area. You can buy large clothing with lots of useable fabric for very low prices. You'll have to do some deconstruction, but it would be a whole lot less expensive than $25 per yard!!
Keep quilting and enjoy!!

And yes, I think I need to remember that "done is better than perfect", and move on to the next one, as others have also suggested.
I tried to work on my next quilt top today, but forgot that I removed the bobbin to steal thread for hand sewing binding to my almost-complete mini-quilt! Rookie error. It was pretty sad that I didn't notice until after three long seams, but at least I have little marks for my next (properly threaded) attempt.

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Your HSTs in shades of brown are very effective. Paired with your choice of prints, it looks great! It looks like you've quilted it enough to me-- just enjoy it. Once the binding is on and it's been washed and dried, it seems like it's finished! Don't look back, move forward! Let's see your next one. :-)
