    This is the first quilt I have made in over 2 years. I made a few boo boos but that's alright. :lol: There were alot of firsts on this quilt. 1st D9P, 1st prairie points, 1st time using flannel for the backing and no binding on the ends. The prairie points came out cute, I will use them again. The top didn't lay flat very well and thats from stretching my blocks when I ironed (lesson learned. haha) The actual colors are brighter than whats in the pictures.
    It's a baby quilt

    front and back.

    The colors would have been better if I had taken the quilt outside.

    I like your color combinations and prairie points on the edges.
    Nice work!!!! Please don't be so hard on yourself. The baby will love the colors and enjoy feeling the prairie points. I always use pre-shrunken flannel for the backing. It came as a suggestion from my hubby who said the backing should always be cuddly soft :D
