I finally finished the Kaffee Fassett quilt I started earlier this year. I completed the final border and I must say, it does look like shallow water ripples around a coral reef. (I am calling it "Coral Reef".)
I found some medium blue flannel with a scroll design to use as the backing (I always use flannel for the backing) and also bought some 100% bamboo batting. I quite like this batting; it is soft and more dense than other battings. All I need to do now, is wash and dry the flannel and then bring all to my machine quilter, Catherine. She does an amazing job of quilting, so I look forward to hearing what she suggests for this quilt. I then plan on giving this quilt to my husband. It was supposed to be finished for Father's Day, but alas, I am a bit late in getting this finished.
Here are pictures of my quilt.

I think the backing colour works perfectly with the quilt colours.
I hope you like this quilt. Let me know what you think.
Happy summer days,
Rosie
P.S. I just had another idea for a name for this quilt. What do you think of " Glass Bottom Boat"? Let me know which name you think works best.
