Frist attempt at a quilt
#22
I think you have done a wonderful job on your first
quilt!!! The border you are showing will make the
quilt even more beautiful. The quilting can be done
by machine. I would do a stitch in the ditch on this.

Great job! You can choose to hand or machine quilt. I learned by hand first, but each take a completely different skill set so I don't think it really matters which you try first. Lots of quilters only like one method or the other, while I enjoy both. Give it a try and see.

Jeannie you did a great job, a lot better than my 1st quilt! I also learned to quilt watching YouTube. As far as the quilting goes, I machine quilt just because it's faster. I can only grid quilt anyway and tie off. I tied off my 1st quilt. I would like to hand quilt but that just seems to take a long time (for me anyway). I am willing to do a single block 1st before attempting a whole quilt. But you should try whatever YOU feel comfortable doing, doesn't matter what we think. You made that beautiful quilt w/o our help, so......you can do it! :thumbup: Oh and Jeannie, get in on the block of the month swaps, they're good practice! :thumbup:
