My first block

I know its not perfect, I'm quite happy with the way it came out. I had a quilting class this morning at Jo-anns, the 101 class. This is the block I made, for my first block i'm so happy! I can see how easily this can become addicting! :thumbup:

You did an amazing job with your first block! I really like the fabrics you chose as well. Keep it up and you'll have enough blocks for a quilt. :)

Fantastic!!! I dont believe there is a twelve step program to help you quit quilting lol

Pennydrop321 05-01-2012 11:30 AM

Thank you all so much for the kind comments. The great thing was I was the only person to sign up for the class so I basically had a 2.5 hour private lesson for $17! It was great! :)

Great block! No one would guess that was your first.
I suppose it is too late to warn you that... this is addicting?

GREAT JOB!

What a nice block. It looks perfect from here. You are off to a great start.

nena 05-01-2012 02:10 PM

That is so pretty. You just need to make it into a bed size quilt. To pretty to stop now. Love the colors.

QuiltingJaguar 05-01-2012 02:19 PM

That is step 1. I would give it a AA++ quilting is like potato chips, you become so addicted, housework goes out the window and piles of fat quarters appear in piles, look out.

sandybuttons 05-01-2012 02:22 PM

very nice :thumbup:

fred singer 05-01-2012 02:24 PM

Great job! I can tell you that my first block did not look that good.

ArtsyOne 05-01-2012 03:26 PM

Very nice! Wish my first block had looked that good.

lfstamper 05-01-2012 03:27 PM

Great job - love the colors!

carrieg 05-01-2012 03:38 PM

it looks great! You have 1/4" outside the points so when the next block is sewn, you will have nice points. Good job!

red-warrior 05-01-2012 03:38 PM

Very nice!

MamaBear61 05-01-2012 03:41 PM

Well done. Your fabrics are awesome.

Sweeterthanwine 05-01-2012 04:07 PM

Wonderful job on your first block. Yes, quilting is addictive, ask me how I know. Keep on going, and soon you will have enough blocks for a complete quilt.

Snorky Lvs2Quilt 05-01-2012 04:08 PM

Welcome to quilting....and the board. You did a great job on your first block. Love your fabrics.

Teddybear Lady 05-01-2012 04:10 PM

Great job! I love the colors. Warning!!! Buying fabric, cutting it into little pieces, then sewing back together is addictive! LOL Have fun.:thumbup:

terri bb 05-01-2012 04:14 PM

i love it! it's going to be beautiful when you have it done! everything is perfect on it. great job and welcome to the most addicting habit there is i think! :) i recently had some pretty intense back surgery and i laid on my side on pillows all smashed up with ice packs and learned to hand sew just to feel the fabric! HA! now im hand quilting it cuz i still can't sit for too long at my machine. ima goner.......

joyce888 05-01-2012 04:17 PM
