I started piecing the top to my very first quilt back in September or October. Since then, I have had very little time to work on it. But I got busy Saturday and Sunday. I have only 3 more strips to sew (probably about an hour's worth of work if I don't screw up!) I am very excited about it. When I finish putting it together, I'll post a picture. It does have quite a few issues. But it is for my bed, so it is not like anyone will be inspecting it. And since it is my first, I will just chalk it up to a learning experience. After I finish piecing the top, I don't know what the next step is. My friend who is my mentor is out of town until a few days before Christmas. And I won't have much time between now and then anyway. So I will put it on hold until she gets back.
In the meantime, I have been looking at other patterns. I'm fascinated by the D9P and I might cut some fabric and see where that leads.
I have really learned a lot reading this board every day.
