Very nice and the border is just the icing on the cake. Great work, can't wait to see your second quilt.

You did a great job! Rail fence is a good choice for a 1st quilt.
Maybe I will see you next June at the International Quilt Show. I can't believe I get to go to Ireland!

I really loved it. The fabrics are what I could source locally...Hopefully my next one will be improved- I learned an awful lot from from this one-pulled my hair out several times but the feeling you get when you have completed it at the end of all the work is very satisfying.

I like the FMQ u did. Did u do it on a regular sewing machine or a special one?? Just read a link on how to do the FMQ on a regular machine someone posted and so much info, not afraid to try it now from reading so much from the site and link...
