You did such a beautiful job on your first quilt. It is beautiful. I can see you doing great work in the feature.

Great job and I love your fabric choices.

Ha, ha, me too! Flannel and minkee pinwheel quilts for my twin grand-daughters! Mine were 20 footers (meaning they looked okay from about 20' away! Yours is spectacular! Is the backing made up of strips of fabric? Did you use a pattern? Your binding is interesting. Great job!!!

I had read that a lot of people left off the prairie pints if they were beginning quilters like myself. The binding I had rather a hard time with; it is from Robert Kaufman in the Kona line: tarragon green, if I remember correctly.
