Beautiful string quilt. I love the way they turn out--they are usually so bright and fresh looking. You did a great job.

It's really lovely--aren't they FUN to make?

Edited to add: I just looked more closely, and I really like the way you did the corners of your borders.

Good job. I just finished a scrappy for my bedroom window. What I used was a muslin backing so that the quilt glows with the sun behind it. Another quilt I did recently was FQ sized leftovers on the back. Whatever you select will be fine, if it is good quality fabric.

Your quilt is awesome. I love that border. I really don't know if I could donate that work of art. You will be blessed for doing so.
