So here are some pictures of my first ever quilt! I did the 10-min-block quilt (with a lot of help from kwhite!). I have just started on the actual quilting bit but I know I am so hooked already!! :) I already have fabric for another quilt and have many more I want to make!!!

So bright and cheery! Love the fabrics and colors. The black makes it all work:)

ZTAgirlknits 09-02-2011 06:26 PM

Thank you so much! My bed frame is black so I thought it would be nice together, and pink is my favorite color!

I wouldn't want to show you my first quilt. Yours is so nice!

Verrrrry Nice! You did a great job!
So great that kwhite could help! Isn't this an awesome board?

Love your colors! I was just thinking the other day, how pretty a pink and black quilt would be...and there it is!

I just watched a video on how to do the 10 minute quilt, and made a practice one. I also want to do a bed size quilt with this pattern.. Love yours

Ok Fez here ya go...although you can't see the quilting all that well in the lighting. But Abbie seems to be enjoying it already! :)

Great job on your first quilt, and kwhite is a perfect mentor!! Now your head will be SPINNING with dozens and dozens of quilts you will want to make....slow down....one quilt at a time!! :-) Ask me how I know all this!!! LOL

Welcome to our common addiction!!! :-)

Jazzz 09-02-2011 08:37 PM

wow great color combo...congrats !

birdgirl 09-02-2011 08:53 PM

Yippee another hand quilter! I love everything about it.

blueangel 09-02-2011 08:57 PM

Love it

kwhite 09-02-2011 09:02 PM

WOW Stitch you are doing a great job.... But I knew you would. You can put it into a quilt show when you are done with it. Most quilt shows have a "first quilt" category. I see the Harry Potter quilt blooming in your brain from PA. LOL you must have a label on the back when you are done. They usually have information like when you made it, by who, and sometimes you name your quilt or put it's "story" for everyone in the world to see.


Oh and your young man is adorable!!!!!! has he figured out that you are the catch of the century yet?

Pickles 09-02-2011 09:15 PM

A Beautiful job and love your quilting :thumbup:

Willa 09-02-2011 09:38 PM

Good job!

Maureen 09-03-2011 03:45 AM

I tried the 10 minute block but struggled with how to stitch it down on top. Yours looks pretty flat how did you stitch around the black blocks?

debcavan 09-03-2011 05:46 AM

Congratulations, may you make many more

jlong 09-03-2011 05:50 AM

Lovely choice of colors, it sounds like your hooked on quilting.

ZTAgirlknits 09-03-2011 08:59 AM

Sadly, no, he hasn't quite figured it out yet lol.....hopefully he'll get it soon I can't wait around much longer!!! I will have to check around Nebraska to see about quilt shows!!

ZTAgirlknits 09-03-2011 09:00 AM

I haven't yet actually! I'm still in the process of actually quilting it, I'll let you know how it goes!

kwhite 09-03-2011 07:39 PM

GIve me that boys number. i will make sure he knows exactly where the bear sh*$ in the woods!!!!

ZTAgirlknits 09-03-2011 07:58 PM

Maybe I'll bring him around on a PA road trip and you can set him straight! :)

Have you been to the quilt museum in Lincoln? I wanted to go there when I was there and just didn't get the time.

Looks like you've done a great job so far. :) Let me know how you do with the quilting. That part intimidates and frustrates me but I'm learning.
