Back to the board from my quilting.
 

I spent a great deal of time on this board a year ago, then stopped and threw myself into quilting. I am still a beginner, but I created my first quilt with my own design. I am back to this board to learn more and perhaps refine my current skills.
This my first attempt at a very simple design, and my first use of appliqué. I wanted to mark the occasion of my wedding being legal so I wanted a broken rainbow. This is my gift quilt for my wife to celebrate our 19th anniversary.
Still working on the binding.

Very lovely quilt for a wonderful occasion. Congratulations on your wedding. I'm so happy for you and all the others whose love is now legally recognized.

Super job!

wonderful quilt and welcome back.. I'm just starting to learn paper piecing and find EZquilting patterns easy to learn.

I like it!

That is beautiful. Doesn't look like a beginner quilt to me. Love it.

pretty quilt!

Beautiful quilt, Laura! And much congratulations to you both for a lifetime of love!

Beautiful quilt, and an occasion worth celebrating! Congratulations on many happy years. ^_^

What a great quilt!! It is hard to get narrow strips straight, you did a great job!!

I surely love this quilt. Nice design.

Beautiful. Love the back. So sweet!

So very special and a well designed quilt. Congratulations and hope you have many more happy years.

I have received private messages asking if I have the pattern for this and sadly I saved none of my notes. I learn something from this board every time, this time I learned to save my notes! I hope those who asked can recreate this, I have no feeling of ownership on this design and would enjoy seeing anyone else's variation.

it could not be any messier than I got in the creation![ATTACH=CONFIG]540734[/ATTACH]

Looks great...good job...

A beautiful quilt :)
