QR Code Wall Hanging Quilt Along: Quilting, Binding and finishing Wall quilt.

This is the last of the quilt along!

First I am going to talk about the back.
I decided to make it a bit interesting so I made a block with this design:
just a black square in the middle with white around and another border of black. I did it with the leftovers I had at hand.
then I added a couple of more squares:

Sorry I did not take pictures of the individual squares but I added them to the back making sure I ended with a back mesuring 34'X34". Now when I started it I thought to line it like the picture above, however as I was taking pictures I change my mind and I decided to line it like this:
Then I place the back facing the carpet then the batting and then the top facing up
Next I pinned about every other square
Now for the quilting since it is a modern design I did a minimal design, lines. Now I had a few options, just straight lines (like I did on the Tokyo Subway map quilt) , diagonal lines or a echo circular design.

I went for the diagonal lines and here is how is finished binded
Here is how the back looks on the back. You can see I should have planned better for the rod

Well I hope you like it

I love your QR Code Quilt and thought I might make one. Since I don't have a QR reader, can you tell me what the message is on your quilt? Thanks!

thank you for your comment, I started with the QR code from my husband's business, but I made some changes so I does not go anywhere.
