Lovely blocks! So romantic!

Sorry, I can't be gentle, but I can be honest. TRIPLE WOW :!: :!: :!: :!: :!: AWESOME :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: Great job. If thats your first and hand pieced, you have some truely fabulous quilts in your future. Keep it up, girlfriend. :-) :-) :-) Pam W. :-) :-) :-)

Oh my goodness everyone. Thank you so much. I am really overwhelmed at all of your comments.

I think because I enjoy doing it so much that I put the effort into it and try and make it as good as I can. With each block I do it gets easier to match up the seams and make it look like it is supposed to.

I have only been doing this since 18 February and feel like I have learnt so much in that time and look forard to doing more and more. My ultimate goal is to do at least 1 Baltimore block, which one of the more advanced ladies in our class is doing.

I only wish I had more time at home to do more, but with a 16 month old it gets hard to find the time.

Thank you again everyone, it really means a lot to me that people I don't know (who I am sure I will get to know) think that my work is good. :D

These blocks look great you are doing a great job matching your points. Keep up the great work.

I'm with them! If these are your first attempt, I can't wait to see it all finished. I do not have the patience for hand quilting. I took a class when I started, and the teacher said we absolutely had to hand piece and quilt. Well, that sampler is still in my closet 10 years later, and it is not finished. I admire anyone who has the patience to do that fine of work. Keep it up, and reconsider the Drunkard's path. You give me hope. I have not attempted one, because I really hate template cutting.

Anyway, good job, hon! :D

These are beautiful! I am jealous.... :mrgreen: I envy anyone who has the knack to do hand piecing especially when it looks as good as yours. I have a joint disease that is starting to affect my hands so hand sewing would probably just frustrate me and I would not be sewing.

I love your work and your colors are so springy...they are awesome! :)

Beautiful!! You are looking like a pro! Go you!

very nice work.

oh just WOW !!!

Beautiful work!! I admire you for hand piecing, I think it is great but I just can't make myself do it. I want to get through and get on with the next one. Keep up that fantastic work. I can tell we will see great things from you.
