Beginner first quilt
1 Attachment(s)
I started quilt (Craftsy BOM) in March, finally got it finished just in time to give to my dgd for their first Christmas with their two newly adopted children. I am proud of the finished quilt even tho I have a number of mistakes in it. I certainly hope I have learned from some of them. [ATTACH=CONFIG]377238[/ATTACH]

What mistakes, us quilters are so hard on ourselves. It's gorgeous.
|
Very hard to believe this is a first quilt--absolutely gorgeous!
|

|
If one cannot see a 'mistake' while riding on a galloping horse, then there is NO mistake!!! :)
Yes we are always to hard on ourselves! Great job! |
Just Awesome!
|
Very, very nice. Did you quilt it yourself as well? If so, what method did you use? I've pieced a bunch of tops but have yet to actually quilt one. My bad!
|
Love it! It will make a warm, happy holiday!
|
I wish my first quilt had looked that good. You did a good job, the quilt is beautiful.
|

It's beautiful and they will love it forever! So hard to believe it's your first! Great job!
|
Wow this is a beauty!!!!!!!! Love it!!
|
What an ambitious quilt for a first-timer! It looks wonderful! Your fabric choices are great. I especially like the the last block in the third row down. Is that circle inset or applique? Whichever it is, it's terrific!
|
What a gorgeous quilt -- they will absolutely love it, especially as its a quilt of love. Great job!!
|

Beautiful colors, no one will ever notice any mistakes. So, don't point them out. They will love it.
|
What a wonderful first quilt...you did a great job...and I bet you learned a LOT!
|
Very Pretty! Great job. :thumbup:
|
I don't see mistakes, I just see beauty. Congrats on the quilt. I am seeing so many techniques even curved piecing. The next will be easier and the next even easier.
|
Wonderful quilt. Beautiful work.
|
Since it was my first quilt, I went the easy way and did stitch in the ditch.
|
It actually is the center of the Greek Cross block, but I thought it was so plain that I did an embroidery
design in the center, it is an outline type design of Christmas Bells with ribbons...my picture does't show it to well. Any of the applique I did by machine, but did do the hidden stich on the back for the binding. I just did a stitch in the ditch for the quilting, didn't want to get too confident...need to become more sure of myself with future quilts. I do have to say, the Craftsy BOM was great, the directions were really easy to follow. This is the first one completed, still have another one that needs assembled for another dgd. Hope to have it done by Christmas...same as this one. |
That is great. I am behind several months on mine and I'm using Christmas fabric so I will have to finish it next year when I have more time.
|
So very pretty!!
|
hard to believe this is a first quilt--absolutely gorgeous!
|
That is sew cute. I never though about doing it in Christmas fabrics. Thanks for sharing.
|
First quilt? I'd be happy if that was my 90th quilt! Congratulations, you did a spectacular job.
|
very nice. I loved the class too
|
My blocks are still sitting in their bin!! You did a great job and I especially like what you did with the English Paper Piecing - thought her sun was a bit lame! And finishing a second one as well!!!
|
You did an awesome job for a first!!! It's beautiful!!!!
|
It's made with loveand there's no mistake about that.Happy Holidays
|
What a wonderful quilt! I wish now I had stuck with the Craftsy BOMs (sigh)...
|
Beautiful quilt. I love the idea of Christmas material. I have so much I may have to make one. You are doing great.
|

|
