    My very first quilt is almost finished! Its from a Kinkade print.
    I learned alot making this quilt....thats how you learn! Measuring is something I will have to work on! Theres a few mistakes on this, but, thats fine! Its my first one.....but the next one I create will have less mistakes.

    Trying to decide on a color for the binding. Any suggestions?

    Maybe one of the greens from the print fabric?

    Very pretty and it's so nice to complete that first Quilt. I think I agree with Mom-6 a green would be really nice for the binding.

    I agree with the others, a nice green would work.

    congratulations! It's thrilling, isn't it? That first quilt... like all the other Firsts in our lives - we never forget them. :-)
