Ruby's Quilt top is pieced

It is very exciting to get to this stage, the quilt top is pieced and looking as I'd hoped it would. The colours are perfect... pinks, greens and blues. The quilt came out a great size, this is it spread over my double bed, and it just reaches to cover the top, on a single bed it gives a nice generous overhang which is what I'd hoped for, thanks to the extra pack of white charm squares and the homespun white border! 
Now to choose some backing fabric and a coordinating binding fabric so I can move onto the business end of the project, the sandwiching, free motion quilting and binding. A few days remain until Ruby's birthday!
