I finished my very first quilt in September. It was a college T-shirt memory quilt. It had 12" squares with 2" sashing and 3" borders. I did a wide serpentine at the sashing seams then did straight stich in an X across the squares. It made for an interesting back design. Unfortunately I did not take a picture of the back before I gave it to the recipient and the stiching does not show up in this photo.
