You're off to a good start. Your quilt is very pretty. We all learn as we go.

You did a great job on the quilt and I love the colors. The backing looks fine and makes the quilt interesting. Keep on quilting as you now have the quilting bug

crazy mom quilts has an amazing binding tutorial that you will cling to for each quilt here after:) The blue is terrific and the pattern came out wonderfully!!

Grandma Peg 02-11-2011 08:47 PM

Good job, and I love your colors.

Your work on this quilt is beautifully done. I like the binding, kinda looks like it was planned that way. Never apologize for your hard work.

I think you did pretty darn good for your first quilt and you gave me an idea for a blue quilt my nephew wants me to make for him.

This is so so true! A great first quilt :-)

madamekelly 02-11-2011 10:14 PM

For the next one I'm going to have to learn how to properly do the binding.



Your quilt is lovely. First one? Nice work! Too bad we don't live closer, you do fabulous quilting, and I can, and like to do binding. Want to trade secrets? :)

Beautiful quilt!!!!!! Love it!

Did you do the stitching with a Machine or did you hand sew it. thats the design that my pattern is calling for and I dont think my machine will do that.

I'm looking to buy a machine that will do some of the quilting but I dont have no ideal which one to get, there are so many to choose from. And right now don't have a lot of money to put into one.

So if any one out there can give me some ideal that would be great...

By the way I forgot to tell you great job on your quilt..

I absolutely agree! Great job!

That is a great quilt, first or not. Binding is really simple and there are several tutorials on it on line. It's probably one of my favorite parts of the process, Maybe because I'm done and go onto another :lol:

not_sew_sane 02-11-2011 10:49 PM

Great first quilt!

nansue 02-11-2011 11:21 PM

Meanwhile, my siblings who watched me put it together and work on it have each decided they would like one too! I guess once you get started it's hard to stop the ball from rolling.

It's prettty--no, the ball never stops rolling!!! There is always someone who would like a quilt!

You did great, you can't learn if you don't try.
