You have done a great job with your projects. It is obvious you have been bitten by the bug and are off to a good start.

My only recommendation to you would be to get a really good book with all the basic information you need for beginning quilting. It will give you tips to perfect your 1/4" seams, will teach you construction methods and finishing techniques, and it will help you learn to select fabrics to make your quilts zing.

One of my favorite beginner books is---Complete Guide to Quilting by Better Homes and Gardens

And if you would rather not buy a book, then check your local library!

You did say you were new to quilting didn't you? Like a friend of mine told me after seeing my first couple of quilting projects ---- "you bypassed Quilting 101!" Way to go! You're doing great! They are beautiful!
