Thank you all so much for your words of encouragement! I just want to clarify that this is my 4th quilt since starting sewing in November. I did know how to sew a bit enough to get thru my one college course. My first was a very easy strip quilt but the next two were tougher. This Quilt is Jazz Hands from Material Obsession. I could spend all day in the quilt shop looking at fabrics. I think I have purchased 1/8 of everything at JoAnns that appealed to me.
