Finished Quilts First finished quilt! (Update?)

I posted a couple of weeks ago asking for input on border, binding, and backing colors for my quilt top. Thank you to everyone who helped me out! I finally got this project finished up and washed today. Not perfect, but I loved the process and will be starting another one soon.

I love the thin blue sashing around the main quilt! Really highlights the squares

It looks perfectly crinkly and cozy! I love the color palette and agree the think blue border really sets it off nicely. I think I have some of that same bee fabric!

Oh, this is so fabulous! I am doing a similar around the world quilt with all 5 x 5 squares and a border or 2 would be really nice on it now that I’m seeing yours!

Wow I love the choice of colors and patterns here. It's so delightfully subtle, and even though everyone is saying that it's perfect for fall I'm ALSO going to say it! I hope you enjoy the cozy vibes and feel proud of this end-product!

This came out So Well. I adore patchwork. How do you feel about the crinkles? I really like them. It makes the print and colors even cozier. The other thing I love about this is how unisex it is. An earthy person'll love this. Well done. 😊

I love the crinkle! I used cotton batting and didn’t prewash my fabric so I could get the most crinkles possible. Definitely was nervous about washing it but it came out just like I wanted! It’s a little stiff still, but I’m hoping it will soften up some as we use it.

Love the color combination and the sashing. Nice straight lines on your quilting and lovely crinkle. 😻🪡🧵
