Looks like you chose some pretty hard blocks for your first top but you did an excellent job with them. Gorgeous top!

Kudos to you for two reasons; Your quilt is beautiful AND that you take the time to teach a craft to the children is fantastic. We need to remember, it takes a village. Thank you for your caring

It's a terrific first effort- great color choices, and squares that are related while being each different. Love it!

Good job. A sampler is good because you learn several different techniques at the beginning.

I just bought a pattern at the quilt store today. I'm going to make a bed cover for my husband and myself. It has beautiful stars on it. I'll take a pic of the pattern and post it.
