Triangle QAL Flimsy

 My rows are joined and I have a flimsy!!!
I thought of adding a border...but I'm not going to.
I've decided to keep my little flower garden scrappy and fun.
This top measures 43"x62"...perfect size for my Hands2Help/Happy Chemo donation quilt.
Because...the  playing has only just begun!
I'm going to sketch the quilting design during a very long in-service day I have ahead of me at work today. (shhhh....don't tell!) I am however, looking forward to breakfast and lunch with colleagues. We never get enough time to just be and enjoy eachothers company.

I'm playing with rick-rak,yo-yo's, prairie points and scraps to add to the flowers after I quilt.
 

I also chose this cozy flannel for the back:
Just realized as I'm creating this post, I haven't thought about the binding! Uh oh! Any suggestions?? I sure am having fun with this Quilt Along...off to see what everyone else is up to. Thanks for stopping by!
With smiles,
Val:)

    This is super cute! Could you do one of those fancy bindings, where you use blue(s) to match the blue and do the bottom part in green(s)? I think that would be super awesome!

    Black and white stripey binding would look great (IMHO !)

    Really like your fun version and now you've got me very curious about the extras...

    Great job Val. Looking forward to seeing what you do with the extra's. How about the same blue from the front for the binding? Since it does not have a border the binding would blend in and not distract from the front. Just my 2 cents worth.
