    Whats the backing material on this cutie?

    I like the green but will it work with the backing?

    When I have enough leftover, I use the same as the last border. Your quilt your choice.

    Why not use various strips pieced together. I think it would look great multi colored

    I like the orange, and I LOVE the variegated quilting thread! The colors in the whole quilt are just fantastic! :)

    Oh that quilt is just too cute! For the binding...honestly it'd come down to a coin toss for me. Either one would look great!
