    I put the border on Ashley's graduation quilt. Wanted to do green, but since all fabric was from my stash, I only had enough to do a blue. I have about 10 blocks leftover, so I will try to plan the backing to include them. I also got the binding done, since I had to piece it. I love pieced binding :thumbup: Use it in a lot of my quilts.

    Love that quilt. Putting that one on my to do list. I also love a pieced binding. They add so much to a quilt.

    If you have a few strips left in addition to those extra blocks, you could put her name on the back! Here is my dorky rendering of that idea - crude but hopefully you get the idea.
