I was looking for some linens in a storage box yesterday, and came across this "masterpiece" - my very first quilt! I think that I created this at least 25 years ago. The sheer awfulness of this thing makes me happy that I've learned a bit more since then! But I suppose it's good to hold onto a piece of my quilting history. This actually hung on the wall of my apartment in a hallway.... guess I was pretty proud of it! (I think the coral blocks bring a new meaning to the words "it will quilt out" - and obviously it didn't!)

How about this fantastic stitching in the ditch on the wonky blocks?!
