My first -completed- quilt

So I am a new quilter, Ive been fooling around with lots of patches and teqniques. BUT this is my first COMPLETE quilt. I quilted it and everything all by myself! lol

I did free motion "stich in the ditch" for the quilting. I messed up in a few places, but hey I'm learning. This is a gift for a co-worker who is having a baby boy. My sister is also having a baby boy around the same time and I am making another quilt just like this one for her!

Im excited to show it off!

I got all my fabric from Joanns, and you might not be able to see it in the pics but the grey patches are all kinds of woodland animals, bears, turtles, racoons,etc etc. The backing material is a soft cuddly cotton. I didnt follow any kind of pattern. I cut the squares out with my GO! baby cutter and just peiced the squares together.

Yay :)

Cute quilt. You did great for a first one.

Well done! Perfect for a new baby!! We'll soon have you hooked!!!

yay! nice job and welcome to quilting! :-)

Wow that is beautiful.

You did a great job on your first quilt! SID is hard, we all mess up with that :) Once washed you won't notice it anymore!

Very nice and good job! It's really easy to get hooked on quilting :)

Great first quilt. You're doing wonderful.

Really like it! Keep it up!
