'Free as a bird' quilt, my version

This quilt was fun to make, it is for my friend who is a bird watcher and is moving into new house.
My FMQ is far from perfect but I am glad that I can do it myself, I am having fun with it.
Used mostly my scraps, even the backing was a left over from another quilt, binding came from 'binding bag', also left over from other projects.
thanks for looking
