How big was your first quilt? What was the pattern? Do I dare to ask? How long ago was that?

My first quilt was a crib size tumbling blocks pattern, each row took me over an hour,SID to finish it. Gave it to my godson and he still has it 15 years later.

Interesting question. I don't remember any quilts in our family growing up. However, when I was in high school (1965), I took scraps of polyester from sewing projects, and zigzagged together. Honestly, can't remember a backing fabric except I did tie. Very ugly, but warm.
I'm hoping I'm learning enough to make a real quilt. I don't have anyone around who quilts. Working on finding a group. You all are my inspiration. Thanks
