    Hi again..well I have thrown caution to the wind and put my first quilt up here , I was a bit doubtful- I looked at the other pictures and there are some fabulous quilts uploaded on here.I know mine is quite basic-I learned how to do the rail fence from a book and the very basic free motion from a Patsy Thompson video on Youtube.This is all new to me! I really loved it. The fabrics are what I could source locally...Hopefully my next one will be improved- I learned an awful lot from from this one-pulled my hair out several times but the feeling you get when you have completed it at the end of all the work is very satisfying.

    I look at it this way, if you learned something from it, it is a success. On top of that, it is a very beautiful quilt. You did a great job. :thumbup: :thumbup:
