Well, I love it! I love bright and white! You did a GREAT job! Can't believe it is your first quilt! Even a piping on the boarder ~ wow!

I think it's really pretty! I love the colors and I think it's awesome that you hand quilted your first quilt. Great job!

Love your quilt. I'm new to quilting and really don't understand what is meant by hand quilting. Can someone explain this to me. Can someone tell me where I can get some info on this. Thank you. Margie

It's a beauty....and piping too...very impressive for a first. Handquilting is addictive isn't it? Though I am learning to machine quilt (lots of quilts on the "to do" list, so need to up my pace). Look forward to seeing more of your work.
