:) Hi, these are the first four quilts I've made...it is quite a progression.

Made this back in high school. Had NO clue about quilting, barely knew how to sew, but wanted a comforter with the world on it...could not find one, so I decided to make it. :)

about 10 years ago now (wow, so long!). this project revealed the importance of planning out the final size...wide enough for a twin, but about 3 feet too long.

close up of hand print block...the green thread is the outline of dd's hand that she traced herself. she forgot her thumb, and drew it on funny. i was going to fix it, but she was three and I decided that that was what she gave me, so that is what I used. the yellow thread is her actual hand that i traced

How precious to keep your daughters hand drawing, it adds an extra special touch to an adorable quilt.
