    Great quilt for first time, a real boy's quilt. Lucky you, you have 2 quilt inspectors. LOL

    Very nice for your young man!

    My grandson wants green and black in his quilt. Yours is a great example of what those colors might look like together. Thanks for sharing.

    I can't tell which is cuter, the quilt or that young man in the background - I think I go for the young man.
    But, you did a fantastic job on your first of many to come. Be warned, quilting (and buying the fabric) IS ADDICTIVE!

    Love your color choices! so pretty. You should be very proud of your accomplishment. Someday your family may squabble over who gets to keep your "first quilt" :)

    Congratulations on your first quilt! Because it is your first, it will always be special (mistakes and all). It is a great quilt. Your son is darling also!

    I am not surprised your son is smiling so big. You were truly embitious to begin with such a large project. I am sure your son will never see all the items that now bother you. In time, you won't see them as much, but will always be able to look back and see how much you progress. I am found I am my own worst critic. Keep up the good work. Looks great to me.
