Ready to pin baste

I was up early this morning and finished sewing the quilt top together. I also trimmed it. The backing is pressed and ready to go. They are both laying folded in half on my big table.

If you wonder why the backing is lavender, well it is because that is my sister's favorite color. I got the backing on sale at Connecting Threads. Once it is quilted and bound it will all blend together nicely.

You know, that is a great point. I have often agonized over the exact perfect quilt back. But other times, wanting to use what I have, I have played with serendipity. At some point you realize, hey, it is OK!
