McSupernova sees the sun

Ahhh.  My McSupernova finally gets sewn together and gets to see a glimpse of the sun.  There isn't much sun in Ohio yet, but good weather is on its way.  I do have to say that the colors look much much better in this picture.  Laugh or not, I did find some McDonalds fabric on eBay.  It's on it's way.  I have decided to go with a pieced back and try improvisational piecing.  I also hope to use some of the half square triangles in the back to make it interesting.  I got the idea from a finished quilt by Leanne called "Puppies, Boys & Monkeys Quilt" at  http://shecanquilt.blogspot.com/ .  I don't know how I will do the border just yet.  I really would like to use my picnic ants somewhere but I think they might be too busy on the front.  Some of the border will be the yellow background.  Stay tuned...
