    I made this for my son's nephew who loves all musical instruments. I wanted to use the extra pieces for the back because once again I didn't buy enough backing. It was the first time that I tried centering a back piece. I like how the front and back turned out.

    What a lovely quilt! I love the idea that it would be reversible as the back is as beautiful as the front! Well done!

    What a great quilt. My brother would love that. The back is cool too. You did a great job centering the panel on the back. Mine never turn out that well. Great job and thanks for sharing.
