OK, a dumb question, what do you mean you floated the top?

The curtains turned bedspread came out very nice. You did a great job.

I did the same thing few yrs ago for my nephew . Made camper curtains from drapes bought at Walmart Loads of fabric left
so the next yr for christmas I did a quilt with the leftovers used a sheet for backing because machine quilted.
Fabric originally chosen because of school colors FSU --
gold and burgundy. Fabric type not the best choice but it
worked for them and looks great on bed. That's before I had
digital camera.
This fabric/color is in the same family.

But I was able to do it.
What a challenge this was.

Great job! I would not have thought about using curtains, either. I may have to try this after I retire and can send time on it.
