First Quilt Finished!
 
1 Attachment(s)
I posted on here a while back asking for help figuring out some fabric yardage. Well after a few months, a bit of seam ripping, and resewing I finally finished the Quilt for my sisters wedding! Here it is!! (A little blurry) I decided to not do a biding and just quilted the backing to the top then sewed on the bottom and flipped it out to seal it on finish of the edges. Not all of the corners line up exactly but I'm really happy with it for my first quilt :)!

good job. I like to bind a quilt using the baking fabric also.

...and this is just the beginning!! Once you've completed a quilt (good job by the way!!), you are hooked but good!

Looks like you did a great job matching the corners, that's the 1st big obstinate of a new quilter and you did great! Looks good, keep up the good work :)

Made with Love...Did you add a label? I gave my daughter a rag quilt for Christmas and she was very surprised and happy to have it labeled.

Love your quilt.
I was in Guam for disaster relief on the earthquakes and typhoons 7/02. Hope you all are doing well. Loved those lumpkies (sp?).
