    Great work isn't quilting fun? Keep going and enjoy. I have had quilting teachers that say keep pushing yourself out of your comfort zone and you will continue to grow and have fun making fun and exciting projects.

    Great JOB :thumbup: . I wish my first attempt, or 10th looked that good. You are doing a really good job on the points in the corners. I learned that squaring the blocks before assembling really helps keep them aligned when you put it together with sashing and boarders.

    Love the colors especially on the pillows and runner.

    Keep up the good work!

    Very, Very good for first projects. When putting sashing between rows of blocks, put the sashing right sides together with the row of blocks and be sure you pin at the corners of each block to keep the corners nice and tightly aligned. Ironing the two sections seams in opposite directions, then carefully butting them against other and pinning right through the matched seams really helps. Pin all the corners first, then sew the sashing onto the row of blocks. That really helps keep your rows nice and straight. Your piecing is very good!! Keep going....practice really does improve your work with each piece you make. Good job!!
