My first finished quilt!
 

I think i posted this earlier but my pictures didn't take! opps! lol
So my first finished quilt. I did post last wk my first finished project that was a pot holder for my sister, but this is my first blanket sized item even if it is lap sized! LOL! i know there are alot of wonky spots wear things dont line up, but it is my first try, and with inferior tools to use at the time ( i cut all the blocks using a pairing knife! :o )
But i do love it, and all its flaws, and the kitties seem to as well, they all curl up on it wear ever it is!

Wow that is very pretty. I love the colors.

Great colors Great Quilt

People look at quilts as a whole. And this is pretty. Love the back.

sign up at JoAnn.com and get their flyer so you can see when the 50% sales are on quilting supplies. It will go easier and faster with the right equipment.

Good job! Please get some scissors or rotary cutter before you hurt yourself :)

Very pretty quilt! Paring knife??!! Time to invest in some equipment!

You are off to a great start. I think the hardest part is picking the fabric. You have the talent - comes natural!! The quilt and your picture taking are tremendous.

Wow!! You did it!! I'm so glad you took pictures, don't forget to put a label on the back and good luck on getting some proper equipment, I don't know how you did such a great job.

It's nice!! I really love the back too.

If you can do that with a paring knife there's no limits to what you will be able to do with a rotary cutter and a ruler!! Great first effort. I love the colors and your "wonkies" don't show. Thanks for sharing.

Boy, are you a brave one! A paring knife? i can't imagine what one of mine would look like if I used a paring knife. Great job. Sandy

A pairing knife - really. It must have been very sharp. Love your colors. Cant wait to see what you come up with next with proper tools.
Very nice job.

You did a great job. It's very pretty.

Very pretty quilt. You did a good job. GO GIRL!!!

Love it - am totally inspired!

Wouldnt have thought of that lol The colors are just great!!! I think you have done a great job - with the right tools you can do anything!!!

Love the color combos very nice

very nice first quilt,especially cut with a paring knife. I think you need a new cuting tool. LOL

lol, ty everyone! i thought you might like to know that i did end up getting a proper rotary, and a large mat! now im loving quilting even more! no more wrist pain! woohoo.
the clothes line is very low to the ground! it is strung between two trees! lol, just enough to put out blankets and sheets in the summer so they dont have to go in the dryer.
From what i heard i wish i could go to Joannes, but there isnt one neer me! i live in New Brunsiwck! lol, we don't have much of anything. I go to fabricvill, the fabric store we have here, but for quilting there isn't alot, so im working up the courage to do an online order!

Very pretty. I like the movement your pattern creates. Lovely colors also.

Wow, you and your paring knife skills are fantastic! Glad to hear you got a rotary cutter!!!! :D

I like your quilt, back and front. Good choice of colors. Great job.

Absolutely beautiful!!!!! Love your colours and the pattern. The first one is such an accomplishment, good job!

Hi and welcome to the board from Iowa. I am so proud of you for using what you had at hand (a paring knife - smile) to make such a beautiful work of art. You should be very proud of this first quilt. The fabrics are beautiful and you did a wonderful job. You are well on your way. Thank you for sharing.

I love your quilt. It's an amazing effort made without some good scissors.
