Tonight is Tuesday sewing night at the quilt studio, so the plan is to finish the backing to this baby quilt. I tried to embrace a little randomness in the border and not follow the light medium dark sequence so strictly or not be bothered if the same colors were in adjacent blocks. There will be a stripe of these pinks on a broad background of gray which I think will look striking and fresh. This quilt will probably be the last time I ever purchase a commercial quilt panel (though I do have a couple left from this same designer of children and circus animals in a parade which will turn into more nursery textiles for the same baby brother and sister). But it has a been a fun challenge to personalize and not let a quilt panel oversimplify and speed up the process.
