    Hi everyone,
    I did take a class 5 years ago and loved it. Made a top but never quilted it, they it got distroyed by water. Now Im "trying" to make a memory quilt. I freaking out about how Im going to quilt this, but I guess Ill worry about that when I get all my squares done.

    I tried making the first (2) block and my blocks didnt line up. I realized that when I figured my inchs out on my block I forgot 1/4 of an inch. So I have to tair them out and start over. My daughter is a tattoo artist and I have downloaed all of her tattoos and that is what the quilt is going to be.
