I am rather excited this time though because .....................................
...................well, check it out, there are no puckers on the back. I know, I know, the lines are a bit crooked but NO puckers! It was suggested the last time that I use more pins in the basting. But before I put in the pins, I sprayed the heck out of the thing with basing spray and then put in the pins. I used more than I usually do, but not as many as all the instructions say I should.
My only problem now is that there wasn't enough excess backing to make separate binding. I think I'll try the wrap the back around to the front method. Please all cross your fingers as I have never attempted this before.

Beautiful! and I love that backing fabric. Congrats on the no puckers - I know how hard that can be seeing as I don't do so well on that either.
WOW! Your lines look so straight! Besides pucker issues, I can't sew a straight line! You did a wonderful job.
It looks great! It's all in the basting!! For the binding, can't you just combine remnants of the fabric you used on the front to make a colorful binding?? Because you have so many great colors going on, it would be nice to see them in the binding.
