    Default At long last, my first quilt!!

    Almost three quarters of a year, and many, many mistakes, it's finally done. I've learned so much in the process, and can't wait to start the next. Here it is, the i spy for my nephew, who loved it. And this I can say for sure: I will never even try to make a quilt without my new BFF, Elmer's School Glue!

    Well done! I like the way you've arranged the colors. And the back of the quilt is like visiting an aquarium. Your nephew will love this.
