Jeanette, I bet you will be much happier with the quilting if you go ahead and add strips to the backing edges to give you something to hold onto while quilting. I would think at least 4 additional inches per side for hand or domestic machine quilting, and 6 inches for long arm quilting.

Whether you are doing the quilting or are sending it out, the quality of the quilting suffers when there is not enough edge fabric. Ask me how I know.

I love your colors, so cheerful! They really do justice to the design.

Beautiful Jeanette, well done getting it done. I wouldn't be able to layer with just an inch, I have trouble with 3 inch but perhaps your work is more accurate than mine. Look forward to seeing how you quilt it. Have you plans?

I think they are right and I'm a bit (a lot) wishful.

Oh gosh!!! Talk about procrastinating!! I never printed off all the instructions for this BOM. I will have to go downstairs and she which months I am missing and get them printed today. Right after I get back from paying my taxes due today. Like I said "procrastinating". I really love this quilt and want to make it in the near future.

Thanks for the comments and following the advice I added a pieced strip to one side of the backing and as it is such a busy pattern it hardly shows. I have started in the middle hand quilting around the house and trees and machine quilting around the center block and will then hand quilt around the ponies (which should have been sheep) and machine quilting the pieced borders.

Just got back from the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham UK and it was good to see one of 'our' quilts in the show.
Well done Esperanza Blanco Ruiz.
