Please excuse all the horrid mistakes, I usually am a lot more perfection-istic. I was in hurry and didn't feel like ripping or re-cutting. Besides it was going to a guy and they don't tend to see flaws like I do. I was also using it as a learning piece, trying to play with all the new bells and whistles I've never had before that my new machine came with. Be gentle with me [ATTACH=CONFIG]515653[/ATTACH]

Have fun with your new machine. He'll love the potholder- it's a great way to, as you said, "try out all the bells and whistles."

While there is room for improvement, I think that's a fantastic practice piece! I love the way you used fabrics that are different, yet go together perfectly!

Cute, camo clover. Really great choice for a guy.

​Cute camo shamrock! Potholders are a great way to practice bindings.

It's great! I love the fabric with all of the different animal tracks.
