Here is the Springtime Quilt Top all put together. I added a purple border because I just felt that it needed it. :)
Before it meets the starch and iron.
All that is left is to quilt it. :)

Very nice Henry :D
How are you going to quilt it, have you experimented yet with free motion?? the deep green border would be a great way of showcasing a lovely pattern, I have got quite good results by tracing a design on tracing paper, and using an open toe and loosening the foot pressure so that you can move the quilt without lifting the foot which works quite well, but go slow and use a fairly small stitch, as you have less chance of going off the line with little stitches....does that make any sense?? :D
