First quilt... kinda
 
1 Attachment(s)
This is the first quilt I've ever finished myself! The binding is the first binding I've ever attempted. It's not very good, but it wasn't as hard as I thought. I didn't have enough, so I used other fabric on the corners. And it's too wide. Other than that, I am pleased with how it turned out. I've had the top for a while and haven't really liked it. The greens don't match and it had green borders on it. I took the borders off and replaced it with something with some color. I am not sure if I like it either, but it matches well. I started at 10:00 this morning and finished around 8:30 tonight with laundry and meals interrupting.

That's very pretty. Isn't it a shame how laundry and meals interrupt what's important?

It's a very fine beginning. Look at any tree or garden and you will see a variety of greens mixed together in nature.
