Your quilt is so pretty, and I love the way you used those colors. What is a perfect quilt?

I think you did a great job. Your quilt is very pretty. You are too hard on yourself.

My dear I don't know what all your fuss was about.....this looks good! Geez Louise we should start a thread of our first quilts. I can guarantee many won't look this good.

You should be very proud. You took many little pieces of fabric and put them all together to make a lovely quilt. Enjoy the accomplishment, and think about all you have learned while doing it. Your next quilt will be better than the first, and your next better after that. Stitches made with love out weigh perfection any day.

It is far from perfect and I think that is what caused my hangup. It has lots of mistakes so please be gentle. ;-)

Looks good to me, besides if there are mistakes, we only learn from mistakes. Most of the time only the one quilting the quilt knows where the mistakes are, others don't usually notice them unless the viewer is going over ever stitch and block with a fine "tooth comb" or unless they are being judged in a show. Don't worry about them, just have fun, and you will know what you need to correct on your next quilt. Besides it's your quilt and you can always say that is just how you had it planned. Keep on with you good work dear quilter.
