Wonderful and beautiful quilt. The fabric your chose for this project was perfect. I think it is a nice idea to use it on the back so that people who see your quilt can better understand the whole process. Your border choice is perfect. It has the look of battenberg lace and really makes a lovely border finish. Now, all that is left is to enjoy your beautiful quilt.

Such kind words, QuilterPurpleDog ... I agree, it's important to include some of the original fabric, just to see the differences it makes. I was lucky enough to have enough for the backing, with three seams, that I managed to get matched perfectly! Sadly, the quilt does not get used much because it is in the living room, but I do enjoy seeing it over the back of a chair. It's funny how some quilts, quilt-up with a nice poofy-quilty-snuggly feel to them. This is one that really has that feel!

Thanks JLT37869 ... happy that you enjoyed seeing it!

That's amazing! It's absolutely beautiful! I got the one block wonder book. Now I really need to get going on a quilt. If my sensitivities will just calm down so I can get some good sleep, maybe I can finish the quilt I'm working on and one more Christmas gift and start on this!

I love the border! It's perfect!
