    With lots of help from this board...I finally finished my sister's quilt that I am giving to her for her birthday (today)...she is a breast cancer survivor and I was going to use a backing with pink ribbons but decided against it after my husband raised his concerns....since this is a birthday gift and she is over the treatments I decided not to but instead to use a pink backing with butterflies...new beginnings...she is also selling her home and will be looking for a new home...so the birdhouse/spring theme works..

    What a sweet sister you are! Love the butterflies on the back. Congrats to sister for surviving cancer and getting on with life.

    Looks like your quilt inspector likes it too. Your sis may not get it.
