Hi Everyone! First of all, thank you all for the wonderful inspiration I've received from all of your beautiful quilts (and sewing rooms).

Here is my first quilt top. My mom (who is also relatively new to quilting) helped me with it. I am SITD quilting this one and will bind in the brown fabric. Also attached is the next top I'm working on. One of the TIC posted recently made up my mind on the pattern I'd like to try next. This one will be for my bed.

Thanks for looking!

Great job, I like the tripple the best.

Great job! I love how crisp and evenly your seams come together and match up. For a first quilt (and second), that's pretty darn amazing!

wow, they both are beautiful!!! I hope to do an irish chain someday

You sure are doing a great job for 1st and 2nd quilts. The TIC is wonderful. The pinwheel one has interesting colors....I like it.....the darker dot fabric adds to the 'spinning' motion.

I think you are well on your way with this wonderful hobby. I love both of your gorgeous quilts. Stunning. Very nice workmanship. Thank You for sharing.

littlehud 01-22-2010 06:38 PM

Wonderful quilts. The first one reminds me of the pinwheels I got as a kid and any Irish chain looks wonderful to me. I love that pattern. Yours is great. Love your colors.

Andrea7 01-22-2010 09:36 PM

Thank you all for your encouragement! I now need more fabric for the TIC so am working on finishing the quilting on the pinwheel in the meantime. The first time binding should be interesting... I'll definitely be looking here for tips!
