Between texts back and forth to my younger sister and having my BBC Top Gear fellow entertaining me , I got the top sewn together and trimmed last evening!  Yeah!  I was surprised how long it took me to trim it.  I had to be careful as there was not a lot of room for error.  I would mark the corners and sides with tailors wax which disappears with heat before I made any cuts.  I wanted this to be the maximum size it was allowed.  It is just a bit under 6' x 6'. 
I want to add this REM patch somewhere on the quilt in honor of my brother who toured with them on every tour since 1987.  
Tonight I will start working on the backing.  I have lots of music related fabric so I will piece something (hopefully interesting) together to add another design element.
Awesome! I really like the way you brought everything together!
