    I am not yet finished my first one (king sized; hand quilting) and I started it in 1996 or '97. Hand quilting is a mood thing for me and it gets set aside frequently so I can make other quilts. I AM more than half-way done, though!

    That is beautiful! Honey my first one is so scary it will never be quilted! Nobody warned me about bias edges so I just cut out however I could get the most out of the fabric! Oh it is a dandy okay! Lives safely hidden ina closet. And no! I do not think it will be allowed to come out. That badddddddd. LOL

    A sampler for a first quilt is a wonderful idea.

    My first quilt is already posted.

    Sorry I don't have them but when my sons were little, I covered their old twin bed blankets with patchwork. Just squares of fabric and hand tacked them. My oldest son, age 50, still has his.

    I love this subject, I am a beginner quilter I made my first quilt and it was for my son. The pattern was "Wicked Easy" and it was but my fabrics were too many different colors. I used my stash, the quilt is fine but not for a man.
