Sister in law's Birthday Quilt

I'm new, and just learning, and am terrified of all the beautiful quilts that have so many points to match up so figured I should start out easy with big blocks of fabric and go from there! This was also my second FMQ attempt, with some meandering on the border and some swirls/vines on the colored columns. Thankfully, it went through the washer and dryer just fine

You did great! Very pretty fabrics... I love the one that is green/blue with snowflakes, and also the blue paisley. They all work well together.

For a second FMQ, also - wow! Well done!

Boy! If you're a beginner, I can't wait to see what you do when you're "experienced"!! Great way to showcase some beautiful fabrics and your fmq sure doesn't look like a beginner's! Way to go!!
