This is the first quilt I've actually made for myself! Super simple, but my favorite colors and matches my living room perfectly!

A close up of the FMQ... I'm getting much better at it, lol!

Fleece backing... matches perfectly and even has cute little skulls on it!

Super simple is often the best. It's a lovely quilt and will look great in your living room.

I usually don't care for long strips like that - something about them...but this is fabulous! I love it - maybe I've just never laid my colors out right. Great job!

I really like your fabric choices.

What a great first quilt and you chose my favourite colours too! Give yourself an extra pat on the back for the FM quilting. Not many first time quilters would go ahead and FM quilt their first effort. Well done.

I envy those that can sew all these straight strips. If theres no seam to line up I get a curved quilt everytime. Love it!

I love this trend using black,white & red. I have a B/W/R top that's ready to be sandwiched. I can't wait to see it as a quilt. Your quilt is really eye catching!

Simple, yes, but great use of color! I bet it looks fantastic on your couch!

Very nice. Love the colors.

LOVE it and LOVE that whole line of fabric! I'm making a quilt for ME out of it!

And WHERE did you find the fleece you used for the backing??? I've been looking and looking for something to back MY quilt and haven't found anything that floats my boat.

I got it at JoAnns. Was about to give up looking and just use black fleece, but it was at the end of the last aisle of fleece, lol!

Nice, I'm working on a B/W/gray plus sneaking a little Red in quilt for my daughter's wedding. At least I'm starting to start to... for Sept. 2011. Thanks for sharing!
