I've finished this one. I used to quilt when I was a teenager, and stopped sewing altogether when my son was born, that was 25 years ago. So here's my second quilt since I started sewing again. My sister-in-law is going to quilt it. I'm going to practice FMQ on some potholders or something before I attempt to do a quilt. I should have taken it outside, it looks a little washed out on the kitchen floor.

You did a wonderful job. The colors are cheerful and well blended. With your skill I hope you won't let another 25 years go by before you make another quilt (smile). Thank you for sharing.

Why do some replies have red x instead of a reply???

blueangel 06-06-2011 01:59 PM

I love it.

jljack 06-06-2011 02:01 PM

It's really pretty. I love those fabrics & colors you selected.

Really nice quilt. Looks like you didn't forget how to! I must be so nice to come back to. Congratulations.

If you put your cursor over the red X and it turns into a pointed finger, click on it and you should see a picture appear.
peace :D

very pretty love the clors

jzaaboo 06-06-2011 03:37 PM

Thanks, everyone! I'm sure I'm better than I used to be because I have more attention to detail than when I was 17. I'm washing the fabric for the next one, and I've bought enough fabric to make at least 8 more, so I have the bug, for sure.

debcavan 06-06-2011 03:37 PM

I'm glad you started again. It is wonderful

scowlkat 06-06-2011 04:26 PM

Sewing/quilting is like riding a bicycle...you never forget how and when you return, you find your love all over again. Great colors and wonderful pattern.
