It's almost finished. This is the back to a quilt I am making for my DBF son and future DIL. They will be married Nov. 19 in St Augustine, FL. They met while attending Embry-Riddle and he works for NASA (for awhile longer anyway) and she is a pilot.

Almost finished. I think the final border will be a blue one.

Sideways view. The brown border underneath is the quilt top.

What a wonderful, inspired backing for this couple. They will cherish it always.

It came out more pieced than I had intended! I just had to make it "fit" them (as does the top) and it just kept getting more involved. I really hope I can keep it straight and centered when I quilt it.

Oh would my husband appreciate that quilt

Love the quilt and the backing. Wow! so beautiful. They will love and cherish forever. Wish I could be there to see the expression on their faces.
