Very pretty .....You did a great job :D

Nice job. You were daring indeed to start with such a large project. Just think some little old wallhanging will be a walk in the park.

Great quilt, what size is it?
You did a great job for your first.

AWESOME job!!!.. Love that pattern .. I have made several quilts with it!

That is the cutest quilt. I hope the one I am making for my soon to be here nephew is half as cute. Great jobl

Wow, that's a great job for your first, second or 100th quilt. Very nice for a baby.

BarbS 02-15-2009 07:43 PM

Thank you all so much for your kind words and encouragement.

Sewspecial.....the quilt is 39" x 50"

Marcia..... I have no idea what she is having.....she told the doctor she doesn't want to know until they meet face to face!! Her hubby would like to know but she told the doctor he can't tell him either! So the pink and blues ones are my starting point. I would like to get those both totally completed and maybe get the other two cut out and start piecing them...then when they arrive I will either be Done....or I will have to complete a partial one........The bonus is either way I will be on my way to having an extra baby gifts on hand.

Thanks again for all your kindness.

Well here is the My Second Completed Quilt!!!

And I even guessed right! The twins arrived on April 3.....a girl and a boy......Anna Patricia and Aidan Alexander....both weighing 7 lbs 11 oz.

I am just packing these up to send off to them!! They were such fun to do.
