4th quilt is actually a quilt:-)

I finished my 4th quilt. I made this for my mom's birthday. I had the top finished on time, but I had to take it back to finish the sandwich. This is a kit from Craftsy and I was very pleased with the whole process. There was plenty of fabric and I found the fabric to be lovely to work with, especially compared to the fabrics I have been using. This was the first time quilting in the ditch and I found once I let my machine do the work, it went smoothly. It was a great overall experience. I think I am starting to get the hang of quilting:-)

Yep, you've got the hang of it:thumbup: Nice colors. Good quality fabrics do make a difference! (Spoken by someone who used to think all fabrics we're created equal! Not!!)

My mom gave me the spread in the 80's:-) It is a Bates and has held up beautifully and it is the perfect neutral spot to take pictures of my quilts.

Thanks everyone, for your kind comments. This is the first quilt I made that is not hanging on a wall. I usually prefer to weave blankets but my mom has gotten such a charge out of me quilting (something that is way out of my wheelhouse) that I thought she'd enjoy a quilt.

You did an excellent job of choosing great fabrics, sewing it & quilting it. She will love it for years to come.
