When I look back on my first quilt I wonder how the darn thing ever got put together. It is a sampler that is still in use about 25 yrs later. It has held together (so i consider that pretty amazing). As I complete each quilt I've learned new techniques; some have been repeated, some I will NEVER do again. But each quilt has been an experience that has been amazing; picking patterns, fabrics, time spent. Enjoy!!!
