    I finished this one over the weekend. It was so much fun to do and I'm almost feeling sad that it's done. I'm so addicted! I have 3 more quilts planned for the immediate future and can't wait to get started. There were so many "firsts" for me in the quilt and I have so much more confidence now. Thanks to all on this board who helped me through this project.

    Well I think you made a great job for your first try, it certainly doesn´t look a first. Love the teddy bear quilting.

    I love the green and yellow. I Never thought of using two colors for the Irish Chain. See you learn so much on this site. :D

    WOW! You are a natural. It's beautiful. The Teddy bears are adorable.

    I'm afraid of FM. Maybe there's hope for me.
