Even though both of these quilts have many "warts" I love them and they inspired me to take up this wonderful hobby. |

Here's my Flying Geese. I started it around 1990. Pieced it on the machine and hand quilted it. Finished it around 2000. I'd quilt on it and then put it away for 6 months or so. I thought I'd never finish quilting it! Finished it after my first husband passed away and I remarried. Hence it's name, New Beginnings. (hope this doesn't post twice. My computer doesn't want to do replies lately).

This is my first quilt and hangs in the spare bedroom sometimes. The first time I went to a quilt store, I saw it hanging and asked about it. They did not have a pattern yet, that a member of the quild there made it up. They had the charm packs and yardage so she helped me figure out what I would need. I took a lot of pics and went home and drafted it out on graph paper. The quilting is not even but thought it came out OK.

Here it is.... I made this in 1997, I recently gave it away, the only thing I miss about it is the hand quilting... it could be considered a extra slim twin!

My very first quilt was a sampler quilt. But I no longer have a photo of it. My file is so large I had to delete some very old pic's!

These are some fabulous first quilts! Wow!
