    Hi everyone. I'm new to this board and new to quilting. My very first quilt was started about 10 years ago and just recently finished by a dear friend who finished it for me. Sooo, I got the bug again. I saw this pattern in a magazine and decided to go for it. There are lots of booboos in this quilt, but I guess it's probably a good thing it's busy and KING sized!! What was I thinking? I really like it, I actually love it, but I've definitely learned what to watch for. I won't start my next one until my 1/4" foot gets here though, that much I know! Enjoy!

    It is beautiful. Welcome from Oregon. My very first quilt was also a king size. I guess we just like to jump in with both feet. LOL :lol: :lol: :lol:

    It was an aggressive quilt for a first endeavor. I think you did VERY good! <wave>
