#1, you have excellent taste in fabric (Haha, I am hand quilting around the kangaroos --the same fabric!). #2 I am also rushing to get this done before Wednesday when I leave to go out of town to deliver the quilt. And #3, I had to change my backing also. I added a 1/2' solid boarder and then used a 2 1/2" pieced boarder around that. Then a solid 2 inch boarder. Needless to say, when I went to put the backing on, I was 4-5" short. So then I had to piece the back. This was all the week before the shower. Needless to say, I was too frustrated to finish it. Now I am going for a visit and will hand deliver the quilt. I hope the baby and family enjoy these two quilts as much as we enjoyed working on it. If I figure out how to post picture, I will........
