I love it! I make fairy houses and wooden castles and never thought about a quilt castle. While this is great, you could go crazy with more additions - a brown drawbridge? a high up window? with maybe a princess leaning out? my brain is going into overload.......

I'm glad you saw my post in time and it helped! When I appliqued the minky on my quilt, I was told the minky (which was actually the Shannon Fabrics version) won't fray when it's cut, and to just throw it in the dryer with a damp facecloth or two to get rid of all the shedding and that worked really well. I didn't satin stitch mine either, but just used a zigzag in the pile of the minky, which ended up not showing anyway and straight stitched some quilting in, i think. Anyway, it held on thru washing. Your quilt is really cute. I love the dragon!!
I saw that piece of minky in the remnants bin at Joanne's and thought it was perfect.
