So here is thebeautiful Amy Butler fabric that I chose for the back:

I used a lot of fabrics from this line on the quilt top but not this pattern so I thought it would be very complimentary :) The fabric was about 7 inches too short for the quilt and I didn't want to buy another yard so the lady told me that since I was being so "cool and funky" with my quilt, I should add a strip of fabrics from the front down the back....I was totally up for the challenge and here is the outcome:



I am not going to lie, I totally feel like a quilter with a back like that!! I think it is sooooo cool!!
And here are some pictures of the finished front all quilted together :)





My mom was the BEST quilt model :)
I am feeling so inspired now and can NOT wait to create a bunch of lovely things this weekend!! I have seen a lot of cool tutorials over at THE SPARK party this weekend and I will definitely be making all of them :) Be sure to check it out over there. I will be posting a give-a-way over there tomorrow!! It's a really good one!
I hope that everyone is out having a great July 4th. It has been raining all morning here unfortunately :(
Have fun, be safe, be sparkly, and leave me some comment love <3 I haven't had many lately...and it's no fun to blog without the comments :)
love you...
