I'm embarassed :oops: to show this but just want to thank everyone for their advice/encouragement in my quilting adventures!

Hi and welcome to the board from Iowa. Nothing to be embarrassed about. We all have a beginner's quilt; some of us have many of them (smile). Looks like you are on the right track and this will be very nice when done. Keep going!!

Good job, you are off to a great start... keep on quilting! Love the doggie fabric by the way....

Thanks so much!! :thumbup:

Hi,

welcome to our forum, hope you visit often. You are doing a great job. Just keep up the good work. And there are lots of people here who can give good advice if you need it.
Keep sending pictures as your quilt progresses.

I think you are doing great! Quilting is like everything else we learn to do well in life ~ we do it a step at a time and it takes practice and patience to get better and better. You are on the right track. Your fabric choice is great.

Welcome to the board! You've taken a huge step just learning how to post pictures here....and thanks for that. I really enjoy seeing what everyone is up to.

Welcome to the QB from Nebraska!
This is going to be a great quilt! Keep working at it and post again when you're finished. We'd love to see the completion.

I like it.

Your doing wonderful, just keep at it, you'll get better with each quilt you do, we all started with that first one :-D

Don't be embarrassed. Quilting, like any fine art (or sport lol), takes practice. If it were so easy, everyone would do it. Remember the end goal, to have something to snuggle with. If all you ever accomplish is that, then you've succeeded.

I love puppies. Can't wait to see your finished product.

Hey Jo! I will have to try and find some pictures for you of the puckered messes I have made of a few things over the years, you are doing great! I am happy to see you on this board too! :-)

I love the dogs. It is going to be wonderful. You should see my beginners quilt. I got the fabric in the local dime store.

Keep up the good work. You can do this!!!

YOU GO, Jo!

Always remember that every long journey begins with one step.

We all started somewhere. I think you will do just fine. And if you have questions, just ask. No need to feel embarrassed. That is why this board is here. To help.

Welcome from Kansas

We all started somewhere. Looks like you are having fun.

Good job, keep on quilting! Love the doggie fabric by the way....

at least you have straight seams in your first quilt!! lol :-D

Welcome to the Quilting Board. You are doing fine - just remember, you are your own worst critic. Like others have said, we all have to start somewhere and believe me, my first (and second, third, etc.) attempts at learning a new skill leave plenty of room for growth.

Welcome to the board from the UK!! You are doing a great job!! The main thing is you ENJOY it!! There is a lot of help here if you need it!! We were all beginners at one time!!!

Looking good...persevere and in no time you will have your first quilt of many. Welcome from Perth, Western Australia.

Welcome! Looking forward to your finish ;-)

Everyone has to start somewhere. You are doing great. Keep at it and soon you will be able to make more complicated quilts.

You did a great job!! Welcome from. Michigan!! Can't wait to see your next quilt!!!

I think you are doing a good job. It looks like you are fussy cutting the squares so you will have a dog face in each square. It may be a simple design, but cutting all those squares will take time.

You're doing fine! Keep up the good work, the little puckers make you first quilt "unique", no one else can make one like it. It's "Uniquely Yours"!

We all have more than at least a couple of beginner quilts, and I have kept all mine, cuz they remind me of the hard work and effort it all began with. Keep on working and keep posting....

give yourself a big pat on the back, your dog fabric is great, I used the same fabric in a quilt, I loved the dogs faces,they seemed so real,well done, keep up the good work...and post a pic when it is cmpleted,

You are off to a good start, just continue and you'll get teh hang of it. Just remember to make sure all your pieces are cut right.

It's looking good!!! You have definitely got the
sewing bug!!!!

Why are you ashamed? It is great

Welcome! Please don't feel embarassed for sharing your wonderful pics. No one is perfect and that's what's so fun about this site, we share and learn. Plus we all were beginners at one time or another. I've been a beginner many times as I take long breaks from quilting and I seem to forget things. Can't wait to see more pics!

Got to start somewhere... hang on to it to show a few years from now... you will love it!

Keep going. You'll be happy with the result.

You are beginning a new adventure... this site is awesome!
