I think I’m getting faster at this because work today & my quilted is completely quilted. I spent a lot less time ripping out that the last couple of days. Either I’m getting better or letting more errors just go 🙂 There is a little puckering in the back where some rows met up but nothing too bad. Yesterday I was having some real issues with the backing getting folded over & having to rip out a lot. Next time* I think I’ll try spray basting, it would be nice to not worry about running into pins too. Next week we do the binding. I think I’m almost as afraid of that as I was the quilting, I’ve heard so many people complain about it.
*Yes, I said next time. I’m already designing another quilt in my head….crazy

Congratulations on finishing the quilting. It looks great. I find binding heaps less stressful than quilting.
That looks awesome! I think it's great that you are already thinking about your next one!

Quilts…not as painful…happy quilting!
