    This is my first quilt I made in March of 2009. My hubby bought my first sewing machine for me Christmas 2008. I always wanted to learn to quilt because my granny use to quilt, but I'd never found the time to do it. So finally, I taught myself to piece a top. I machine pieced this one and hand quilted it on a hoop. It was for my 10 yr old daughter that loves animals.

    Even made matching shams
