Nice job! Are you hooked now? :lol:

Very pretty colors, great job. Quite an undertaking for a first quilt. Did you find it hard doing a large quilt? I haven't gone very big yet. One day....

Congrats!! That is wonderful for your first quilt!

Hey - Thanks - the colors were easy - it was all April Cornel Maypole. I still have a challenge in front of me - actually quilting it. I am using left over fabric - in 12 inch squares for the back - this is for my daughter - and I suspect that the back will be showing alot - she does make her bed each and every day - but often not until it is time to go to bed. I am planning on using batting in thirds or so - when I quilt it.

Very nice. Love the colors! Your daughter should love it!

It is a great quilt!! Congrats on your first. Your daughter must be getting excited for you to get it quilted and on her bed. The colors are really pretty-I love April Cornell.

Barb M 08-18-2008 08:11 PM

Oh very very pretty!!! :)

jojo47 08-22-2008 05:29 PM

Wow! Great colors and simple pattern! My first quilt was as rail fence and only 45 inches square...big enought for grandchildren to play on, though! Keep up the beautiful work!

jacquemoe 08-22-2008 08:33 PM

Very nice! So, if you're a swim mom, are you saving all the swim team
T-shirts? You may want to make a T-shirt quilt one day. My daughter was grown when she handed me all her swim T-shirts and asked me to make a quilt for her. Stay tuned in with us :-)

swimmom 08-22-2008 08:47 PM

Yes, I have a ton of shirts - swimming, baseball, softball, wrestling and more. I have seen some very exciting t-shirt quilts - not just squares sewn together!

Izy 08-22-2008 09:18 PM

Great job for a first attempt, I love the colour combo :D

Shadow Dancer 08-23-2008 04:08 AM

Beautiful job! So are you an addict now? lol Well done. :)

ksusan 08-23-2008 04:58 AM

Yes, yes, yes!!!! The colors are beautiful. I especially love the blues and purples from that April Cornell collection. Beatutiful job! Isn't it lovely to work with such nice fabric???

Welcome aboard and congrats...

Piecefully yours,
Kay Susan
