Hi again..well I have thrown caution to the wind and put my first quilt up here , I was a bit doubtful- I looked at the other pictures and there are some fabulous quilts uploaded on here.I know mine is quite basic-I learned how to do the rail fence from a book and the very basic free motion from a Patsy Thompson video on Youtube.This is all new to me! I really loved it. The fabrics are what I could source locally...Hopefully my next one will be improved- I learned an awful lot from from this one-pulled my hair out several times but the feeling you get when you have completed it at the end of all the work is very satisfying.

paulswalia 10-08-2011 04:45 PM

It's beautiful!!! I've been quilting for about 10 years and STILL learn something every time I make a quilt. Sometimes it's a lesson of "don't do that ever again", but that's part of the fun! If I don't learn a lesson, I wasn't paying attention! Keep up the good work!

KatFish 10-08-2011 04:49 PM
