I've been sewing all my life, but recently have decided to take up quilting (I guess I figure I don't have enough unfinished garment and knitting projects laying around my house... ).

Anyway, I just wanted to say hello and share some pictures of my first quilt. It is a Quilts for Kids quilt and it is ready to send back. I thought it was a good way to practice and pay it forward a little bit. I'm going to do one more Q4K quilt and then work on some projects for me! Can you tell, I'm obsessed already? :oops:

Hi! You did an awesome job of quilting this. I just wish my practice looked half as good as your does.

Great job and let me tell you it does not take much to get hooked on making quilts! I want to do everything I see. Of course that is not possible but one can wish!!!

Welcome from Chattanooga... you did a great job! As a new quilter myself, I just signed up for Quilts for Kids and hope to do some, including preemies, for one of our local hospitals. This is one of the major reasons I want to quilt.
