new quilt I want to keep for myself
This one is just half square triangles laid out in a neat design. My plan was to make it for my etsy shop but I don't know if I can part with it. I used poly batting, which I am really starting to like a lot more. It's so light and warm.
I had fun quilting this one. I didn't do a perfect job on the strait lines. I tried to do ruler work with them and I haven't done it in a year and it was like starting all over. It still is ok, but just not perfect. The rest of the quilting, I just had fun with. The leftover blocks went onto the back and almost lined up with the quilting in the front. They are only off an inch. I thought that was really neat.

Love it. It is so charming -- I would want to keep it too. And I think that since you didn't make it for someone in particular you should keep it. Too often we end up giving away, or in the case of selling, all our projects and end up not having any of our work ourselves.
