Default My first quilt top! Be gentle!

Most of this has been practice in sewing 1/4" seams, sewing straight lines, cutting accurately... none of which I did perfectly. But if I wanted a perfect quilt, I'd buy one made in China, right?

This is a baby-sized quilt for my new niece, made with precut scraps I bought on eBay. Her parents love anything vintage, and these fabrics could have come out of our mom's linen closet!

It's a disappearing 9 patch. The fabric on the right is going to be for the backing, and the striped fabric I think for the binding.

I just got a new Brother CS6000i and am super excited to quilt it! Just straight lines, I'm thinking.
