I found some burgundy brushed cotton fabric on a really good cLeaRaNcE sale that I thought might look good for the back.
I think the appeal was that one fabric could look so different in each block.
For the most part, green is the dominant color so I used it for the border also.
Here is a view of the back and the great quilting. This quilt was quilted by Laura Erickson of Orem.
It is nice to see the stack of "to-be-quilted" quilts going down. But, oh boy, there are still so many that need backing and quilting done. (And to think I used to finish a quilt before I started another one!)
Right now Toma has 2 of my Christmas quilts that she is quilting and I am making the backing for a tree quilt (started 19 years ago), and my friend, Janine, and I are working on a quilt made from the worn out scrubs of a girl that works with us.
Today I was kept busy bottling peaches. They look almost as beautiful as a quilt.
Happy Quilting! Lynda

I have always admired this quilt. It can even make ugly or unusual prints look pretty cool! Thanks for the share! :-}
It's always nice to cross projects off "THE LIST". Especially when its such a NICE project!
:)
I love the effect of these quilts. I have made some blocks, which I turned into a bag, but never a full quilt. Yours looks beautiful, I love the colours.
You quilt is beautiful!! I have always admired that type of quilt but have never made one myself. Your colors are gorgeous.
Lovely! I have somewhere one of those among my UFOs. By the way, did you see my latest post??? If not, you have to come over and look ;). Hugs Vreni
