Kim,

You did a terrific job!! Don't you just love all the helpful gals and guys on this forum? Makes quilting a lot less scary for novices.

Keep up the good work!

Hi Bobbinwinder, I saw your I Can't Believe It's A Beginner and it is just gorgeous! Wow...love the colors and the borders and everything! I saw you mentioned "Turning Twenty" and that is the next quilt I was planning to do. I picked up a Turning Twenty baby quilt kit at one of my local quilt shops so that may be my next project. Otherwise I have a charm square table runner to try...Happy Quilting :) Kim

very, very nice. i really like this quilt. i am putting it on my list to make. i especially like the dark fabric along with the colors. it gives the eye a place to rest and really sets off the quilt. thanks for sharing. i, too can't believe this is your first. love the quilting also.

oh oh! YOU are a natural! MY first quilt sure didn't look like THAT! The colors POP! - I LOVE it!

Great choice of colors. I love it

Thanks so much for your nice comments. I can't take credit for the color choices though!! My husband saw the Joe Willie quilt hanging in the quilt shop (JJ Stitches in Sun Prairie) and loved the fabrics so I used the same fabrics from the kit. So the pattern designer gets all the credit for the fabric selection!! The designer is Button Stitch Design.

Good job!! I always like to see the different ways everyone does stitching in their quilts. Very pretty colors.
