    This was the very, very first quilt top I put together.It was from a precut quilt kit and being a newby I didnt realize at the time I bought it that all those little triangles and squares had to match up LOL.Needless to say my points are sometimes disappearing into the oblivion but I thought it would be cute for my new grandson to be.

    How would you quilt this ..an allover or around the fussy cut block??
    I am going to bind it with bright red I think.

    To quilt this cute one, I would do sitd on around the borders, and a cross-hatch sitd in the middle. Bright red binding will pull it all together.

    The new baby won't care that the points aren't perfectly alligned! It's cute as is, and I would machine quilt around the squares.

    Good job I really like your first quilt, I think stitch in the ditch would work very nice.
