This is Princess and the Pea.
I won the panel at a guild auction back in 2019. That year the retreat mystery quilt started with a panel. If I remember correctly, I brought the panel and a bunch of fabric that I thought would go with the top. After I got the borders on it, I folded it up and it’s sat in the To Be Quilted pile.
This quilt was put on the 2023 Brandon Quilters UFO Challenge list because I knew that the January program at Quilters By Hearts’ Desire was Panels and Cheaters. This even worked into our new monthly lesson on borders, as the first lesson was Coping Borders.
When it came time to bind it, I opted to use the same fabric as I used for the backing. It’s black and has multi-colored swirls on it.
