I used poly batting (my warm and white was too small). I am pretty pleased how well (IMHO!) it did turn out. I certainly have learned along the way and only hope I can remember what I did so I don't repeat it. Anyway, I just wanted to share with all of you. Now I can call myself a "Quilter"....I have my big girl pants on tonight!! A big thanks to Betty Boop who is making a label for me.
Thanks for looking :-)

If you can match corners that well with flannel, regular cotton will be a piece of cake! Looks soft & snuggly to me.

Congratulations! Great job. Cute quilt.

Really nice for a first. If I may suggest, you adding more quilting inside the blocks. With usage the fabric may start to droop with all that open space. If you do nothing more than an X in the middle that will make it more stable, and shouldn't take very long, because you can go from one block right into the next with straight lines, then go back and cross them.

Homemother 06-18-2011 04:48 AM

Congrats! Your first quilt! Hope you are going to make more!!!

What a great start to your quiltmaking journey! I love that you chose Trip Around te World, as I made one very early on in my quilting....and the blues are wonderful!

catladyquilts 06-18-2011 05:08 AM

the only problem with finishing the first quilt is now you are hooked and can't wait to move on to the next and the next and the next.

pokergal3 06-18-2011 05:13 AM
