    Smile Beginner first quilt

    I started quilt (Craftsy BOM) in March, finally got it finished just in time to give to my dgd for their first Christmas with their two newly adopted children. I am proud of the finished quilt even tho I have a number of mistakes in it. I certainly hope I have learned from some of them. [ATTACH=CONFIG]377238[/ATTACH]

    If one cannot see a 'mistake' while riding on a galloping horse, then there is NO mistake!!!

    Very, very nice. Did you quilt it yourself as well? If so, what method did you use? I've pieced a bunch of tops but have yet to actually quilt one. My bad!
