    You are very brave, posting the very first quilt you made. Congrats, your pride is only topped by your results. Keep up the good work and from one newbie to another, keep reading the posts here. I have learned so much from the experts who discuss quilting on the digest. Maybe someday I can be as brave and post a picture of something I have made.

    No need to be "gentle with you" compliments abound already from other quilters. It is wonderful and if this examples a 'first' quilt you are already well on the way to being an awesome quilt maker!!! Great job, well done!

    congrats on your first quilt...there will be many more, right all? re: quilting....I remember being told by someone a loooong time ago not to leave any spaces when quilting that is larger than your outstretched hand, so that is kind of my mantra now......

    I think your first quilt looks like a winner. I like everything about it, the pattern, colors, fabric, etc. I'm looking forward to seeing your future quilts.
