Welcome to the Quilting Board!
That is so beautiful! You should be so proud of yourself. I have been quilting for close to 10 years or so and I am still using my seam ripper. Sometimes the only way we learn is through mistakes, so I must be close to becoming a genius!
Just what I was thinking. Now you know how to do tons of blocks. You are a lot futher along that a lot of us. I am now making pot holders with a lot of different blocks. You put your blocks all together in a lovely quilt. You did GOOD girl. Thanks for sharing. BrendaKOriginally Posted by bearisgray
Turned out nice - looks like you had a lot of learning opportunities with this quilt!
Be kind to yourself, by being kind to others. When you help others you help yourself.

This life is the only one you get - enjoy it before you lose it.
Wonderful. Sometimes it is best not to know what you're getting into so you just jump right in. You did a fabulous job on the quilt.

Very nice, if they don't like it take it home for your enjoyment!!!!!!

What a gift!!!!!
Home is where the heart is, and a few scrappy quilts.
That is a gorgeous sampler quilt! (my favorite kind). Great quilting for one so "young" to quilting!

Never regret growing older, its a privilege denied to many.
Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

Wow! You jumped in with both feet. You can just about do anything now. Isn't quilting fun???

Remember, people will see your quilts long after you are gone....NOT your housework!
That's an amazing gift! Good job!

Beautiful job! What a labor of love.

Breath-taking! It's like a beautiful sampler or assorted blocks, your colors and piecing are so good and the white background sets it off well.
So glad they liked it! Me too! It turned out great! It's very unique and can't imagine doing that many different blocks for one project.
Being skinny isn't easy, so I gave up and opted for being sexy instead. (aunty acid)
I've always wanted to make one just like that... Great job looks beautiful.....
Beautiful how could they not love it???????????
