    This is PERFECT! You have to remember that YOU don't have to like it. Vincent does! If you need to-place an alternating red/blue 3" charm around (or whatever size to come to an even number around the quilt and bind it.

    It certainly does not look ugly to me. It is definitely something he will always treasure!

    It looks as like a kid thinks fast and fun. I like it. I'd do borders of solid colors to pull out some of the main colors, but i wouldn't change anything on the quilt itself

    Everytime Vincent looks at this quilt he is going to know how special he is, how much better can it get?

    Chocolate brown binding was what we decided on because it matched the dark inner border. The quilt was sent off this morning to be machine quilted. I will be working on the label and some other things for the back while it is away. The pillow covers will also pick up the red and blue and brown and tan.

    Thanks for all your tips and ideas. It helps always!!!!
