She is far from perfect but she is my first and I love her :D Tomorrow, I sandwhich her and than quilt her..Do have a question though..Do I add the binding before or after quilting? The picture that has the quilt on the fence..The wind was blowing so the borders kept swaying 8-)

Beautiful quilt! Well done!! Put the binding on after you quilt. :-D :-D

Wow! How brave are you to use triangles in your first quilt! You did a great job!

The binding is the last thing you do ... sandwich, quilt, then bind.

Your quilt is great! Love the color combo.
You bind the quilt after quilting it. It "binds" the raw edges of your quilt sandwich. Don't forget to post pics after you have her completely finished!

Congrats on your first quilt and well done. That one really pops--red and black--very dramatic!

Dina 03-12-2011 04:48 PM

Beautiful quilt!!

SuziC 03-12-2011 04:49 PM

What a great job! Pinwheels are one of my favorites. Do the binding after it's quilted.

lileth1374 03-12-2011 06:09 PM

Your first? WOW!!!!! I wish my first looked like that. I love the colors that you used. I always put my binding on after I quilt.

roseOfsharon 03-12-2011 06:11 PM

So very, very nice. Love black and red combo. You did great for your first effort. Please show us again ater it is quilted and bound! :-) p.s Was so nice to see something besides snow in a picture. I won't be seeing green for another month or more.

Good job!

Yooper32 03-13-2011 04:32 AM

Hoorah for you. You will especially love this quilt as it is your first and you are going to finish it yourself and be so proud, as well you should be.

Jeanniebelle 03-13-2011 04:43 AM

That is an awesome quilt. I never would have thought of using red and black. I am still working on my pinwheel project quilt. It is going to be made for a full-size bed and given as a Christmas gift to a lady my husband works with. Jeanniebelle
