It's great how she gave you purple scraps so you could make her a green quilt, and you did! Wonderful job, beautiful quilt!

Contrasts make quilts more interesting! The purples and green complement each other perfectly! Great job!

Great job making the colors work together. I've always loved green and purple together and this turned out beautifully. Tell your aunt that you both worked together well on this quilt!

I love this quilt! All of the colors go together so well. And purple is my fav. color. The green comes out very well so I know your Aunt will be thrilled. Great job!!!

For handsewing the binding, I learned that using Straw Needles is much easier on the hands. Love using them. I think sz 11 are what worked best for me. I searched on the net and found them. Made by John James I think.
