Great quilt! Now I need to do one for myself!

Pat T 12-06-2010 01:09 PM

You did a great job! Technically, we all make boo-boo's but if you don't point them out ,no one will notice! Making a boo-boo makes it unique, one of a kind! I've been sewing for years, and just make basic stuff, I think you are on your way to be a great quilter! For your first quilt, this is great! Good Luck to you, you have inspired to me to try something more complicated, happy sewing! :-)

Good job! :-)

Great job on your first quilt. My first one was a scrap quilt so I didn't have to match anything

I think you did a great job! Congradulations on your 1st quilt! What is next on your list?

TexasSunshine 12-07-2010 06:31 AM

Very good, we learn from every project we make.

Bubblegum0077 12-07-2010 08:46 AM

Congrats on your first quilt. Your technique will improve with time. Continue working with patterns, don't rush and tell hubby you appreciate his support. My hubby loves everything I make even when I can spot all the boo boos too.

You did good and I am very proud of your perserverance. By the way, the colors compliment each other and it works well.

omak 12-07-2010 01:15 PM

You did a great job!
I have put this pattern aside on my to do list because I love country/Western, and that theme is almost always manly enough for my veterans <wave>

Stacey 12-07-2010 01:17 PM

Awesome!! Welcome aboard.

mommamac 12-07-2010 01:21 PM
