Hello Quilters!
I"m a very new quilter. I don't know the lingo yet, but with the help of this board I think I'm learning! My mother in law is a great quilter. However she lives 3000 miles a way! She's given me a few books to get started with. I've done a few rag quilts and now I'm hooked! I've attached (hopefully) a couple of pictures of my latest project. It's a pattern from quiltville.com. I am planning on donating it to charity. It won't be perfect (as you might be able to tell in the close up photo, the center of one square is wonky). Is it cool to donate a wonky quilt?
Should tie it or machine quilt it? Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

Any quilt given to charity will be loved, wonky or not. If you want to spend the time and practice, machine quilt it. If you love and want to practice the piecing, tie it. No rules for charity, just gratitute from the recipient.
