I finally found sometime to sew and I was determined to complete this quilt top. I just finsihed moments ago. First thing you have to do it post it on here Right! I really like how it turned out. Of course there are more than a few newbie boo boos, but who's counting.
I am giving it to my niece for college. I am thinking about sending it out to be quilted, I have never quilted anything other than a QAYG strip baby quilt and table topper. Since this is a gift, I want it to look nice. I would try it I think if it was for me. It is twin size, I have no idea how much it will cost to be quilted, never priced it before in my area. Although if you have any ideas of a simple way to quilt this please share, I might be brave enough to try if it is not too hard.
Thanks for looking and any advice is appreciated.

great job. That first big quilt is always a thrill to finish. Around here quilting starts at a penny an inch for simple quilting and goes up from there depending on how fancy you want it. Keep up the good work...

Glenda your not along. I feel the same way you do. But I have yet to learn how to hand quilt and have all these unfinished tops. That's alright. It will get done and I will enjoy the process as I go. Hope your hands are feeling better.
