    I made this 112x112 quilt for my first. I sure learned a lot by trial and error. I have a Janome 11000 SE and wanted to try the embroidery feature so I did all the square centers with a flower. I stitched the binding by hand. For a beginner, I am happy with it but might not advise anyone to take on such a big project for a beginning start.

    That is so large for a first quilt. You are amazing. You stuck to it and got it done. And it is gorgeous.

    Very pretty, and cool idea to embroider the centers. Really getting your money's worth from an embroidery machine. Super quilt, and a "first quilt", too. Congrats!
