Wow! That is very well done. I see great things in your future! Thank you for showing us your early work. One of the things I enjoy most about this board is that people share their problems, progress and achievements along the way.

Well, if you call that a beginners quilting, then I expect you will eventually win some ribbons for your work.

All the quilts in the show don't get a ribbon, but it's nice to see them all there. I don't enter for the ribbon, I enter to fill out the show. I have won a few ribbons, but this is just frosting on the cake. We have a very small show and it is just fun to see all the quilts there. They are judged by the audience.

Awesome quilting! You must have some long arm experience to have done so well right off the bat.

Hi! I marked the "I heart OLAF" before I loaded the quilt because I wanted to get the placement and spacing and wouldn't have been able to see that with the quilt loaded. The rest of it, I marked on the fly, on the frame. I had a general idea of what I was going to do in each area and had done some measuring beforehand so knew the size I needed for the squares running up the right hand side for instance.
