Ok I know that this is probably a terrible idea but I would really like some help. I made my first quilt last month. We moved for the summer and I needed something to do. I ended up making a quilt.

Take a look and tell me what you think. Its not all done yet just to let you all know.

I think it is great for a first quilt. I love the blue with the black/brown. I am so glad that you shared it.

Great work!

Have you quilted it yet? If not, you could just do straight diagonal lines of quilting through the blocks, making big "x"s through each block. Use dark blue thread and it won't show.

You have made a beautiful quilt! And now that you've shared your first one, you'll start getting excited about sharing all your future quilts!

Wow! You just graduated to the "professional" category -- meaning you are a quilt maker as evidenced by the fact you have actually completed a quilt. Love the colors, and especially the binding fabric. Good job!

It covers a queen size bed and I don't know if it will be warm yet. Have to wait until I get back to Utah to test it out. Thanks. I love to quilt now.
