    Well here it is. This was my first experience with a sewing machine and my first attempt at a quilt. The further I got the better it went. When I finished the 6 blocks there was such a big difference between the first block and the last that I wasn't sure it would go together. At that point I decided I would do whatever I had to to finish it. So I trimmed the blocks to match the smallest one and went ahead. I think it came out pretty good.
