    Default First big quilt....

    I hope to post a picture of my first big quilt. I did 1 baby quilt. I took 3 classes. never quilted before, but have extensive sewing experience. In the classes I only finished a couple blocks of each so far. One was a New York Beauty, a disappearing nine patch and a mini charms. I had gotten a pre-cut 5" charm pack of 170 pieces (cheap) a few years ago. So I decided to make my granddaughter a quilt. I made the simple design myself and added some more fabric.. What do you think. She likes butterflies and purple and her name starts with "K".
