    It is beautiful, maybe some type of leaf or feather design.

    You did a good job. So cute! Bet it would look good if you outlined it. I agree I would put different color binding 's. Love it.

    Yes, I think that's the way to go. I, too, can't wait to see them all done, too.

    I would go with varigated thread and heavy quilting (because they will be washed a lot). I would also put the binding on by machine. You can stipple, or go around the applique, or use loop-de-loops, etc. The quilts are so cute! The kids will love them!

    I agree that a different binding for each would work as well as an all-over stipple (avoiding the applique). Great holiday quilts. Thanks for sharing. Let us see them once they're bound.

    I made this quilt in king size. It is a wonderful pattern, with so many manly things; it will grow with the boys.
