Lion Baby Quilt

I just shipped this fellow off to his new home in Brooklyn. He has a lot of baby snuggles in his future! I used my Lion quilt pattern, available as a print or digital download pattern. The baby, for whom I made the quilt, is named Adeline, which means noble, so her mother and I thought a lion would perfectly suit her. I love the vibrant mints and pops of gold and pink. The quilting is 1/4" and has, I think, a calm but striking effect. The mother wanted me to encorporate her old baby blanket into the quilt, so I used the backing of that blanket for the binding of this quilt, and let it dictate the color palette. Have you tried quilting this densely before? What do you think about it?
