First Finished Quilt
 

Wanted to share my first finished project. I started it early summer. I happen to see this pretty design on Pint ! Credit goes to Hyacinth quilt designs. It was pretty easy for a first quilt. I used a variety of cottons as well as batiks. I really liked the color combinations of the main fabric of butterflies. The woman that quilted it for me did an amazing job and I was pretty happy with the end result. I did a quick binding and also a machine embroidered label gifting it to a very close friend. Thanks for looking.

Very impressive first quilt. Beautiful job.

Carol, you did a wonderful job on your first quilt. I've made a pattern quite similar to that one. And you're right - your butterfly focus fabric is beautiful, and you did a great job pulling the colors out of it for your other fabrics. You should be very happy and proud of your efforts. I bet your friend is thrilled.

very pretty, congrats on your first finish

Carol, your first quilt is a real beauty! The butterfly fabric is neat too. Well done! :)

Hey girl, I would not even show you my first quilt. Yours looks like a pro did it from start to finish. Great job!

Very striking! Great choice of fabrics. Congratulations on the completion of your first quilt.

Amazing for a first quilt! It's so big! You have every reason to be proud and happy, and I'm sure your friend will love it.

That is a great quilt for a first one. You did a beautiful job.

I wish I could say that my first quilt looked anywhere near that good. Excellent job.

I love your colors and I want to try to make that pattern.

It's stunning! And for your first quilt too! Wow!

Great job...love the pattern.

Beautiful quilt!. I think you made some lovely design choices. I like the way you used the focus fabric. Truly a great start for a new quilter.

That is just gorgeous. I see a master quilter in your future.

Wow...very nice first quilt. You should be proud of your work and I hope you enjoyed the experience along the way.

KEEP ON QUILTING! You made a wonderful first quilt.

Lovely choice of fabrics and pattern. Beautiful quilt.

You're a natural. Hope you continue with making quilts.

Your "first finish" is absolutely beautiful. You deserve to be very proud of it. Really love your focus butterfly fabric. I have seen that pattern somewhere before and you sure did it justice. Thx for sharing

You have some mad skills for a beginner. Way to go!

Really a beauty! My first quilt was no where near as well done.

Great work and the first one. Beautiful

Ohhh, I agree. The fabrics are beautiful. Nice job and thanks for sharing your quilt that does not look like a "first quilt". Your friend will love it.

Beautiful! I would never show my first quilt.....lol

:thumbup: you did a great job!

Lovely quilt. Unbelievable first quilt.

Thank you all so much for the compliments. They are very much appreciated. It was a labor of love for sure....1/4 inch seam vs. scant 1/4 inch seam....my biggest struggle. I have so many more projects planned in my head, it's hard to know which one to begin with.

Well done. It's a beauty. I love the fabric and the pattern. You did GOOOOOD girl. BrendaK

It may be your first but you are a true quilter, you have the colour sense and your piecing is wonderful. Congratulations.

You get a big Gold Star for your first quilt. Your fabric choices are just perfect for that pattern and you did an admirable job on your quilt.

Wonderful first quilt. Great job on matching the cross lines.

That is a very nice quilt.....way to go

Wonderful job! Love the backing fabric too. Now that you're off to a good start, will be expecting to see more beauties.

Wow your first quilt is gorgeous! Can't wait to see more of your quilting projects.

it looks great! you should be proud

beautiful job!

Great job on your first quilt.

I'm very impressed with your first quilt, it's lovely.
