    Default My First Quilt

    I finished my very first quilt yesterday! It's far from perfect, but I love the way it turned out. The quilt was inspired by CarsonToo on Etsy (http://www.etsy.com/transaction/35425343), and the binding was inspired by Rita at Red Pepper Quilts (http://www.redpepperquilts.com). I can't wait to make another one!

    The colors are most accurate in the first picture.

    You did a great job. Would never have guessed that it was a first quilt. Keep it up.

    Great job. Sounds like you got the bug. Glad it is the quilting bug and not the flu bug that is going around.

    Beautiful! I love your color choices and your use of solids. You must have some sewing experience if this is your first quilt.
