Hi. I'm new here and pretty new to quilting. I've made two small (wallhanging and baby) quilts and am finishing up a twin size quilt now. As I don't know anyone who quilts personally, it's been great to find a place where I can learn and get ideas from more experienced quilters.

Here's a picture of my current quilt top (don't look too close, it's far from perfect! :? ). I've since added a 4" border of the light blue fabric. I'll be machine quilting it myself (just straight diagonal lines) and hopefully getting it done by next weekend!

Nice to "meet" you all! :)

Oops, the picture didn't upload. Let's try that again. Sorry for the poor quality picture - the lighting was bad, but I didn't have anywhere else to lay it out.
