Spinning Star Back Finished!

I have been working on the back of the quilt today, designed it last night and finished it today.  It is entirely paper pieced, using a hand dyed maroon batik and Kaffe Fassett Paper Weight in blue.  I wanted the design to echo the spinning star on the front of the quilt and yet leave plenty of room for the quilting to show.

I have also added the border fabric to the front of the quilt and will be hand basting these together so they are precise when I start to quilt.  No quilting tomorrow...picnic at French Meadows with my husband!
