Well I laid and started to sew my first quilt.

I think it came out very pretty. I also had some problem with squaring up the squares. Some were bigger then others so I made them all 5 1/2 inch squares. The pattern was for a baby quilt with 30 squares I doubled it to 60 so I could make it a tad bigger. I will put a border on it. Thank you for looking...

Very nice! It's big enough it won't have to be put up when the baby grows a bit!

Lovely job!

Thank you every one for the great comments, Well I stayed up later then I should have and sewed the whole thing together. It went very easy and fast I was amazed at my self. The only other problem I have had is I went to bed at 12:45 last night and every time I rolled over I was thinking of the different borders I could do on it. I need to make it a little bigger for a nap blankie so I'm thinking of a wider border. So I'm off to do a little paper work to figure it all out.
