It was weird. A fun weird tho. Ok if all remembers my first horror (rows didn't match up) I took it all apart except squares. Got my new machine and the quilt looked like it NEEDED squares. Not sashing. Sooooooooooo I cut out squares and sewed and all matched up perfect, Ok I'm on a roll, 2nd,3rd,4th row hrmm ok this is cool. Last row , perfect. Hrmmmmmmm lets see, border? How about this way. Het this is fun I say. Before I knew it I was done, but in a way saddened cuz it is done. LOL

My Aunt came over yesterday with ALL her sisters fabric. (My Aunt doesn't sew) Diana can no longer sew with her arthris, so I inherited 5 boxes of fabric,rulers, cutting mat, 5 rulers. Her machine went to her daughter, but she didn't want all the other stuff.(happy dance) I thought maybe I'd play with a pinwheel? I have sooooooooooo many ideas floating in my head lol

Congratulations, Bev. Great job! The quilt is lovely. I'm sure Maekala will love it.

I wanna Thank EVERYONE for all the kind comments . Ya know if it weren't for you and your incouragements, I'd have thrown away that first attempt and said poopie on it, but you all were there for me and I DID IT ..I DID IT....(a drean of mine to make quilts)with tears :cry: and a lump in my throat I thank you all.
