Beautiful quilt. My first one was hidden under my blanket. Ugly as the day is long but it sure was warm.

Wow, that looks like a very hard pattern for your first quilt. You did a great job. You should be proud of it.

So my husband bought me the top of the line "Pfaff" sewing machine, (not knowing if I would even like sewing or not. Lucky for him and me, I did). My mom and I had been doing estate sales and I found a picture of a quilt that I knew I had to make. My mom thought I should start with something simpler, so I wouldn't get discouraged. But, I was determined. Anyways, here it is. I'm very pleased how it turned out. Debbie Giesler did the quilting.
Sometimes mom is wrong, and it's a good thing. Gorgeous.
