Rainbow Quilt DONE!

It's done it's done, my rainbow quilt is done!


I am so pleased with how this has turned out!  It's a bit wrinkly at the moment as I left it in the tumble dryer slightly long and the creases set, but they'll come out next time it gets washed (which, given it's my son's quilt I'm sure won't be long).


I quilted it in zig-zags, and have bound it in scraps of the green, blue, indigo and violet fabric.


This was going to be one of his Christmas presents, but I've already got him a few other presents and he's too little to really understand the idea of Christmas anyway, so I've decided to give it to him early.  I think a few games of hide and seek and a bit of tent building will be the order of the day!
