It is lovely!

I don't see anything wonky about it. I think you did a great job. Now, you need to make some and put them in a quilt of your own.

Great job, and really nice pattern. Keep it up, you are doing great!

Homespun 01-17-2011 05:41 AM

It's great--don't beat yourself up!!! Be sure to post the finished creation.

It looks good to me.
I love heart patterns.

That is a very nice first square and the applique is very good! I only have one suggestion though. I used to iron my quilting seams open like you do because that is how we are taught when we sew garments, ect but if you can iron them to one side (usually tward the darker fabric) your blocks will line up much neater :) Great job and please post pics of the finished project :)

That's a great block and you have every right to be proud of it. Isn't this place just the best! Love that you showed the back too.

Jennifer22206 01-17-2011 05:50 AM

I think it looks beautiful.

Peggyinno 01-17-2011 07:39 AM

Beautiful on the front and back!! Have fun on your quilting journey :)

Great block. Once this is pinned and sewn to other blocks, it should be fine.

Don't get dismayed and don't stop. If you continue and frustration, etc. sets in.......Come back and discuss with all of us who thought our "first works" weren't what they should be but they were. This block is great.

Drew 01-17-2011 08:47 AM

Wow! I'm impressed! Even a mitered border!

Matilda 01-17-2011 11:22 AM

Very nice job!!
