I did it! I finished my first bed sized quilt!
 

I used my embroidery machine to make the blocks then did the joining, sashing, etc. I sent it out to be quilted as I just don't have that skill set yet.
Boy does it feel good to have it finished! I started it in December for my son. I have three more sons so am hoping to make them all quilts this year. I think if I keep it simple I will be able to do it. I'm feeling more confident. This is the first (successful) time I've done binding. I still need to go over it with a zig zag... I watched several video's on how to do binding on a machine rather than sewing the final step by hand and tried that. It worked OK but doesn't look as good as hand binding and the edge isn't secured so I don't think I'll do it this way again. Boy is it hard to sew on something this big.... I can't even imagine how hard a king size quilt is going to be to maneuver.

Bravo!!!

Wow! I love it, your work is beautiful.

Nice choices for a son's quilt! It's lovely. To me, it looks "celestial". Thumbs up!

nicely done

Congrats! Looks great!

Congratulations! Looks beautiful and a job well done.

Great job. The block remind me of a Spirograph. I loved that toy back in the day

Congrats on your finish! I love the design and it looks great with the black background fabric. What threads did you use?

Your quilt is sure to bring an extra hug...or two... from your son.

Very pretty...congratulations!

Oh how pretty!
