OK, here's pics of my first quilts. I have a friend that's been giving me lessons. The pink one I put mostly together, and what a mess it was. My friend put on the border and binding. Now that it's quilted it doesn't look too terribly bad... Then one with the black border is my first one I did, with her instructions. I'm finishing up one more that is 100% me.
I'm addicted...

Kind Regards,

i see nothing wrong with either one. as a matter of fact, I would be rather proud to have them in my home.

Great job!!

TammyM 10-18-2010 12:14 PM

Great job. They are both wonderful.

Lady Shivesa 10-18-2010 12:17 PM

Beautiful!! I especially love that second one. Welcome to the world of quilting, as I'm sure you know by now - it's VERY addicting. :)

KellyK 10-18-2010 12:32 PM

They look wonderful!

You did a great job. You are well on your way to being a great quilter.

sttchr 10-18-2010 12:36 PM

Like them both

hazeljane 10-18-2010 12:40 PM

Great job. I love the look of the second one- like magic windows. And the quilting is great too. My first quilt looked nothing like that. (of course, it was in the dark days before a rotary cutter and I can't cut straight to save my life.)

Wonderful!

MinnieKat 10-18-2010 12:41 PM

Great job on both -- they're beautiful!

emt2004 10-18-2010 01:11 PM

Both of your quilts are lovely. I really like the second one, great colors and the whole look is so nice. :thumbup: :thumbup:

wolfkitty 10-18-2010 01:21 PM

Both turned out very well! I like the colors of the pink one. It's a little brighter, but you have to like pink or you could easily overdose on pink!

Elsie 10-18-2010 01:21 PM

kkg916 10-18-2010 02:30 PM

I cannot take credit for the quilting--my friend whose been giving me lessons has a long arm quilter so we've plan on exchanges--i'll scrapbook for her, she'll quilt for me... :)

PunkiePie 10-18-2010 02:35 PM
