Boy oh Boy....I can't believe that these are your 1st quilts. They are beautiful!!! I'm at work so I can't send mine, but it was just a rail fence for my hubby.

I can't.... I give all my quilts away!!!! I enjoy making them, but, the smile on the face of the person receiving the gift of a homemade quilt is priceless!

I give 90% of mine away, too...but I always try to take a picture of it first. I think I've only forgotten to photograph 2-3 of my quilts.

I give a lot of my quilts away also. Not only do I try to get a picture of the project before it leaves me, I also try to get a picture of the person with the quilt. Looks good in my scrapbook.

The first quilt I made has not been quilted. I knew nothing about quilting. I learned a lot on the first quilt I finished which was the third top I made. When I went for help I was told I could not make the quilt because I had no patterns and no tools. I guess I showed them. I made my own patterns and used my elem. school ruler. This was the result. Also shown in the avitar.
