    Default My First Quilt Completed

    Recently , while on vaction to Iowa visting DH family my SIL convinced me to start a quilt top. so off we went to her LQS and I spent a fortune on some beautiful Batiks. We used a pattern from a quilting magazine that she had on hand. We her guidance and the assistance of my DH we proceeded to cut and piece this project.
    Wow! what an experience.
    I was going to try and quilt myself but due to size 108 x 108 opted to send out. What a good decision. It came back beautifully done.
    Now I am Hooked.

    You certainly jumped into quilting with both feet with that as your first quilt. Well done and it's a beautiful quilt.

    I can see why you would be hooked...your first quilt if stunning. The colors are perfect for your bed. Well, Margret, when will we be seeing your next beautiful creation? Soon I hope.
