Here are a couple pictures of the finished quilt. I only have to sign it. No bears on it yet either. I'm not sure where or if I should put them on it.If you look closely you can see the quilting on the purple section. Doing the zigzag on the rows on the front made the squares on the backing. I was thinking of putting a few random small bears in the border.

That is absolutely gorgeous. I love the Amish style quilts with the black, the colors just pop out at you.
Fintin is going to love that, when he is old enough to care that is.

What a lovely quilt for Fintin. Are you sure you want bears anywhere? It just looks perfect as it is.

Oh Dooley your quilt is absolutely gorgeous. I don't know if putting bears on it would detract from the pattern though. I think I'd leave it just as it is then Fintin can have it with him, not just in childhood, but throughout his adult life too.
