    My first quilt was also a wallhanging. I made it in 1988

My philosophy is that each quilt is a snapshot of what I'm capable of at the time. As long as you continue to challenge yourself, you're learning and mastering the art.
    Welcome to the board.

    Thanks a lot !! For the lap quilt...I don't think I will fix it...it is telling a story with this defect..and I think I love it just for that ;-) exactly as you said...it is there to tell me how far I can go...

    Everyone has to start somewhere. The important thing is that you are improving and, maybe more importantly, you are having fun and going forward. I recommend spending time with You Tube videos - especially Jenny Doan's videos for Missouri Star Quilt Co.
