This is some of the best sewing I have ever done. I took my time, I was very careful, and my seams are nearly perfect.
I ordered my fabric for the binding and the backing, and it arrived Monday afternoon. For the binding I chose this...
For the backing I chose this...
I ordered both from Lola Pink Fabrics, and I had a great experience, so you might want to check them out. I ordered late Thursday night, and my fabric arrived Monday afternoon. I had trouble finding the binding fabric that I wanted, but I eventually discovered Lola Pink, and luckily they had some.
Next up is basting and machine quilting. I'm down to two and a half weeks to get this done before the baby shower, so hopefully I will have some progress to show you next week.

Looks great Gwen - everything matches up perfectly. What a great choice for the binding. I think mummy and baby will love this very much.
Great choices..they are lovely and bright and light looking. You've pieced the top together really well.
Beautiful Gwen! I love what you choose for the backing and binding.
