Dojo36 they are all beautiful.. I have come back more than once to see the pink and blue quilts :lol: I hope one day mine are as pretty as yours...

all u need is an embroidery machine and a good teacher, anybody can do it.

Beautiful !!! Beautiful !!! What an encouragement to me that I maybe I'll still be able to make a first quilt too. My Mom would have loved it!!!

I started quilting at the ripe old age of 64 after 1 year and am still not in your league! I enjoy my retirement hobby - although I have yet to make a full sized quilt - crib/lap size are the largest. I love to play with variations - and usually design my own - just because I have followed by the rules for too many years and want to fall outside the "limits". BUT I must say, that your first quilt looks so professional and mine are obviously by an amateur! JEALOUS is my name! Scrappy is my usual game!

WOW! Double WOW!! This is so beautiful! I'm sure it'd be a blue ribbon winner if you entered it in a competition.

As for not starting sooner, it's never too late to learn! Keep on sewing!

:lol: WOW!! You can be very proud of such a BEAUTIFUL quilt. I'm sure you are thinking what you may do next. The colors are wonderful. You go girl!!!

very pretty.....

It is beautiful. It is never too late to find your passion.

You did a beautiful job!!!! Wonderful quilt. Keep up the GREAT work!!!!

Oh my goodness, this is so beautiful. Are you sure this is your first quilt? Wow!

I have this design, yours is so beautiful!

extra pretty

That is very pretty and AMAZING for a first quilt! I see this thread is old, do you have pictures of your quilts since then?

Really? Are you serious? Your first quilt ever? Wow, that's hard to believe. It's beautiful.

Just beautiful!

Oh my!! A first quilt?? WOWSERS!

Wow! You don't fool around when you start something. Way to Go Girl!

It's beautiful! Now you better get going because as another person stated you've got a lot of time to make up for :-)

Beautiful first quilt, love the colors, congratulations on your first finish

Oh my gosh! We all wished you had started earlier as well--then again you probably have another 30 years of creative license--You go girl!

Excellent job! It is beautiful. I know it took a while to make that master piece! Congratulations!

Beautiful quilt, can't understand what took you so long to get started.

Just goes to show you, never to old to learn something new. One pretty quilt, and I love Pink and rose. Barb

Oh my, it is too gorgeous to be believed.

Beautiful, congratulations

I love it, how proud you must be!! It gives me hope that some day I will get that far. I`m past your age a little, but farming was a full time job till we just gave it up this past Nov. the last dairy cows left, my DH started here 58 yrs ago. We still have pets, horses, goats rabbits etc. I have made many baby quilts and flannel blankets, even quilts for grand kids & great grand kids, but only easy to sew, square pieces and knotted them. I dream of the day I can make something like you did.

WOW!!!! I love it!!!! You should be very proud!!! Great job!

There isn't much else to say - everyone before me has summed it up quite well........ Beautiful, gorgeous, wonderful, striking, congratulation ............ what else can I say. Love you quilts.

You did a fantastic job on this quilt and on the blue one too. I am glad you are so happy with your local quilt shop and learning so much. You do have a natural talent and I hope you continue to make more quilts.

stunning. just stunning.

it is absolutely beautiful!...can't believe it is your first one:-0!

It's soooooo beautiful!!!!!! Congratulations! I admire you - learning something new keeps life interesting.

That does not look like a first quilt. I've been quilting for 15 years and haven't made anything that could be compared to your fabulous master piece. Can't wait to see your second quilt.

Absolutely breathtaking!

I agree with this one

That is truly a beutiful quilt--I think it's wonderful that you "found" quilting as a "mature" adult :) Thanks for sharing the picture.

That is so pretty. Congratulations on your first and I hope it will be the first of many you show us. Just lovely.

WOW, you sure have a talent for quilting if this is your first!!!

You have a gift for sure, it looks so professional, did anyone help you or are you self-taught?

That is beautiful! keep up the good work!
