I had to order more backing fabric which arrived yesterday, so will begin tracing the panto onto the backing next week, then sandwich it and start quilting it from the back. It reminds me of spring lilacs, so that is the backing that I choose. The neutrals are all small print "shirting type" fabrics that I bought in Shipshewana last year. Enjoy.

do you trace the pattern onto the fabric? I just have my DSM and trace a pattern onto the golden threads paper, would love to figure out how to skip a step!
