    Welcome, Welcome, Welcome. Isn't this one of the most relaxing hobbies? Wait until you quilt for hours and wonder where the time has gone.

    Welcome to the QB... it's nice to see new faces... especially those who have already figured out how to posts photos of their projects. There is a lot to learn as a new quilter... and this is a wonderful board filled with knowledgeable members who are always willing to help and provide input.

    Welcome to addiction! Your work does not look like a "newby" by any means. Nice job and color usage!

    I am so glad you are enjoying quilting. You have some beautifully executed modern quilts. Here is something I didn't know until recently. You should block your quilts. I think there is a tutorial on blocking quilts on this board. It would be way easier to start with the little ones, so that when you get to the big one, it is easy!

    You are way ahead of me on your points! A month of quilting and you are exacting. That is amazing! You either had a wonderful teacher, or you are just a meticulous tailor. Great job! I love the fabrics, too.

    Your quilts are beautiful. They will be loved by who ever will be lucky to get them. Great to hear that you and your wife enjoy quilting together. We have a married couple in our guild and they make beautiful things. Don't get too competitive with each other. LOL - Great work.

    It's amazing how many men get hooked on quilting once they get interested in what their wives are doing.... I think this is great as they're also doing some marvellous jobs!!! Good on you and good luck, your quilts are very pretty!!!
