Vintage Strawberry Shortcake

One day I found a vintage 1980s Strawberry Shortcake sheet at a thrift store for $2.  It screamed to me "QUILT BACKING!"  I therefore bought this pattern and pulled out my fabric stash.

Here I am quilting it up. I mean here's Rupert. Helping. Or interfering. Or whatever.

I decided to bind it using the trimmings from the sheet.

My favorite part, though, is the back.

Can't say that about many quilts.
