My Beginning off the frame!!!
 
5 Attachment(s)
This quilt is my first attempt at a quilt!!!It was started before I had a sewing machine so part of it is hand stitched!!!Then my parents bought me a machine and I finished it after a few sewing lessons!!! Then I splurged and bought a long arm and just finished quilting it and I gave it to the lady who is teaching me how to sew!!!!!
