I’m working on a little quilt for my new niece. I didn’t have quite as much fabric as I thought I had, so instead of all little blocks they went into a frame. The binding will be the green on the back. I like the back way better than the front. I think I should start making both sides of all my quilts like the back of this one.

I’ve been dragging my heels debating on whether to finish this or rip back and maybe make something that would actually fit me.
