This was my first attempt at FMQ in 2010 on my small Kenmore machine. I've learned alot since then. I really liked the colors of the quilt but the piecing was alot less than perfect. Many, many mistakes. But I guess that's part of learning.

Awesome. Looks good to me. I have problems working with small pieces. Wasted a lot of fabric. My squares never line up.

I think it looks great. It will keep someone warm and the mistakes won't hinder at all. ( I can't see any!) Sure hope I can get my FMQ to that point someday! Beautiful. I like that pattern. Is it something to do with Irish Chain?
