I don't have any advice because I am fairly new to quilting also. I just wanted to say I love your quilt! The colors are so pretty and your points are perfect!!

You have done a fantastic job on ! Love the colors.

I totally agree with Ninnie, of course we love to hand quilt. If you are going to have it quilted, your quilter might have a preference.

I love your beautiful card trick!! Your colors are great. Bravo.

I've never used fusible batting before, but am curious about it. I normally use a quilt basting spray with either Hobbs cotton batting or Warm and Natural. When I have the money I will buy the 108" fabric for the backing so I don't have a seam. Any ideas on what you're going to do for the backing and binding?
