    Here's the Clover quilt I have been working on for my Daughter and I finally finished it tonight. It's by no means perfect and I have made lots of mistakes but I am happy with it. This is the first time that I have free motion quilted and I might say that it was a learning experience.

    Thank You all! It was supposed to be her Christmas Present but she knews I was almost finished with it and wants it right now...lol.. This was a fun one to make. I made it all from scraps with the exception of one yard that I bought that had the green clovers on it. The back of it I used a navy blue sheet... I know a lot of people don't like using sheets for the backing but this seemed to work fine.
