What a cute quilt!! You are right do not stress over it, it is done and over with. It may turn into being Peyton's favorite quilt you never know. I agree with some of the others it is saying to me RED BOARDER :D
I have had backs put on sideways also :cry: and it was the year my goal was to make my 6 cousins quilts and was one of theirs. Not only was it sideways it was to short going that way and had to be pieced :evil: He obviously is not a people person at least when he is in pain. He should realize it is better to take the loss and not charge at all and even give you a break on the cost of the next one. There really isn't a lot you can do once it is done. He could have been more gracious about it....then to have his daughter to make the call (coward, bad man, bad man :lol: )
If he thought that was the right thing to do he should have just done it.
But when all is said and done...very cute quilt!

Maybe his idea was that she would look at it correctly when folded back (as you have it). Nah, just trying to make lemonade when life hands you lemons.

I would think about a yellow binding...it would make the colors really pop! (Just my opinion.)

It is a lovely quilt. Peyton will love it I am sure. I feel for you though, as you will always feel disappointed with it, but Peyton will love both sides. She is lucky to have such a talented mummy!

I agree with a bright yellow to bind with, it will help bring out the yellow in the quilt.

I would do the same shade of blue that you have in the quilt.
