    It's very pretty. In fact I just printed off that pattern from Pinterest.

    Yeah first quilt finished. No hon, the colors didn't wash out. It just looks like that. You did better than I did on my first quilt. All the seams, if not some, are on point and match exactly. Some seams are off, but only you can see them. It's ok. You will learn alot more as you move on to differnt things. Happy quilting and welcome to the quilting world.

    Don't beat yourself up - it looks pretty good. We all have things to learn every single day that we draw breath.
