The Quilting is Done

Christa Quilts' Modern Christmas Tree Quilt


 What is on the back?  More tree's, of course.
 
 And a sweet cat looking for company.
I'm having a problem choosing binding fabric because the front trees are scrappy with lots of aqua blue and magenta, but the backing is green, white and red.  Maybe red would be the best choice.  

FYI:  Fabrics Galore is closing and is having a big sale.  You might be able to snag a bargain or two, if interested.

God Bless.

    The quilting is just gorgeous and love the back. A red binding would pop it.

    Blimey - you have been busy! That is stunning, both front and back - you should be very pleased with it!

    I'm with Sharon - red binding would bring it all together.

    That quilting looks fabulous and maybe red binding would look good. A deep red? There seems to be a few Xmas trees with the deeper red. Anyway, well done and take care.

    What a great job. Absolutely beautiful.

    I really don't think I'm good at color at all, but I'd lean to auditioning a dark green (that matches the dark green of your trees) and maybe see if there are any greys that blend with the quilt). I'll be curious what you go with. Either way, I'm sure it will look great. Gorgeous as it is.

    That is absolutely stunning. The quilting designs you went with are just perfect too.

    About the binding, how about making a scrappy one using the fabrics you've used in the quilt?
