I wanted to add more quilting in the center, but every strip was too much and just the seams looked terrible; I tried that and ripped it out. I did not expect or wish for an award for this one. It was serendipitous that, when adding the binding, it met exactly at matching stripes!

Wow - that is eye catching and mesmerizing.

What show did you put it in? I challenged myself to enter a quilt in Genesee Valley this year. Not for judging, but to show it. I have a terrible fear of people seeing my work. March 31 was the deadline to enter, I think I completed the online form on March 30, lol. Finally decided to just do it and get it off my bucket list. Quilt is currently w/ LA.

Love your binding, too. I always like a striped binding!
