I can't believe those are your first!!!
They are beautiful!! I am working on my first as well but it is only a table runner. I am nervous to do anything too big yet! But seeing what you have done I may get the nerve up! Maybe!

Congratulations. You did a fantastic job!! I love the colors in the table runner. I am partial to the chenille. Chenille reminds me of my childhood. (We were forbidden to JUMP ON THE BED that had the chenille spread on it. :wink: My sister and I loved to bounce on that bed.)

I hadn't thought of that use for the chenille...that turned out great! I love it...almost a shabby chic isn't it??

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks all. You are all so encouraging. And I was kinda trying to go for the shabby chic look, Sandpat; a combination of that and cottagey look.

I love newbies! Great quilts really love them both, but I am especially taken with your pillows! If I ever get my roof fixed I'm gonna get a full sized bed and I believe that your bed quilt and pillows will be perfect!
you should be tired of it by then right????

They are both very pretty, you did beautifully!

The small pillows were made from a lace table runner and an old dress with lace collar. If I am tired of it by then, I promise you will be first in line to have it. :)
