I'm very happy to show you all my very first quilt! It's a small sampler quilt and it is completely hand quilted. It took me quite some time to finish it, but I am pleased with the end result. There are of course a lot of things I would have done different/better if I were to do it again, but it was a great learning experience.

Oh, you would if you could see the actual quilting :lol: My stitches are all over the place, but they were getting pretty good at the end, so the borders aren't too bad :)

Welcome from Indiana. Your quilt is beautiful. I still have trouble getting points that good and I have been quilting for some time. Good job.

Very nicely done. If you didn't tell us up front, we wouldn't have been known it was your first quilt. Did you get hooked during the process?

I think I was hooked before I started doing it :D I've wanted to quilt for as long as I can remember, and now that I'm actually doing it, I'm never stopping!

Very nice work on it and very pretty colors. I know how proud you are of it...my very first quilt was all hand done and I am still proud of that.

Beautiful quilts! Congratulations on your first success.

Harmony 12-28-2010 04:41 PM

It's gorgeous! Good for you for hand quilting it! I think you'll find that you learn something new with every quilt you complete. Unfortunately, some lessons I need to learn more than once!
