Oh that is too funny!!

My biggest project in size was my very first quilt. Some friends talked me into taking a beginner class with them and I figured I'd better make something I'd use in case it was the last one I ever made. Needless to say it was just the beginning. I made 26 log cabin blocks (24 for the quilt and 2 for pillow shams). After I made ALL of them, I decided I didn't like the middle fabrics and ripped out the middle of each of those 24 blocks, rearranged the fabrics, and sewed them back together. I also machine quilted it (1st time ever) and wound up with what I lovingly call "my pucker quilt". I still use it today.
