The center of this quilt is made of material that I cut off the bottom of curtains I bought for my boyfriends daughters room. He wanted the curtains shorter so I figured that I could use the excess to make everything match. The first quilt I made was for my oldest son and it was only a lap quilt. I'll post that one later, I don't have a picture of it right now. I asked advice on this quilt a while back and am just now getting around to showing pictures of it (oops sorry). The second oops ( even though I made more than just three): On the second to the last row I cut the material to short, so I ended up cutting a small piece of the white material with circles on it and sewing it in the middle of the row to keep it from being to short. I added the purple in the center on the last row to make it look like I meant to do that to the row before. The second oops: I messed up and cut the backing and the batting smaller then the quilt top. I didn't know how to fix it but ya'll helped me out. I was going to make a border of purple but I didn't want to have to go through the trouble of sewing the batting and more backing back on. I was also going to make the binding on all four sides different colors like the four colors in the quilt but I didn't have enough of each color to do that. I ended up cutting up the material I had in all different sizes and sewed them together randomly to make the binding. Thank you so much for your advice. Here should be my pictures.

This is my soon to be daughters quilt

I sewed hearts on the purple squares to hopefully make it look better. I also stiched in the ditch, down the center of each row and on the hearts with the four different colors of thread to match the color of the material.

I sent pictures and tons of info with the same title and I got comments. I just wanted to add some more comments with it but I couldn't find a way to do that so I used th title again and apparently it wiped out my previous message. Do you know how to get it back?
