    Default Kaleidoscope Quilt
    I took a class to learn to make a Kaleidoscope Quilt and it turned out it wasn't what I wanted to make but I took the class anyway. I bought my material and needed help cutting it the right way. The teacher did help me but for some reason she couldn't get the material lined up. I wanted to make this by hand so I didn't have a sewing machine with me. While everyone else was sewing away I was still trying to cut this material. I was sweating beads trying to get it done. I brought home and had an alcoholic beverage, read the instructions over and over and finally got the material cut. I sewed this by hand and quilted by hand. For the first time ever I had trouble with the big triangles stretching but I managed to get it together.

    It looks like you turned a bad start into a good finish. It turned out to be a very nice quilt.
