Fabulous job! You should be soooooo proud that this is your first quilt.

It's so inviting. It looks like the perfect quilt to curl up under and watch TV.

And the hand quilting looks great! I'm jealous. :P I would never have the patience for that.

Good Job!

Looks perfect to me. It is beautiful and what a great job you did hand quilting it.:-)

Gal I commend you doing all the hand quilting, you did great!

A beautiful hand made quilt to be proud of. Lovely indeed.

I don't hand quilt and amazed when I see all that work. I know it doesn't go together as fast as machine quilting.

Very nice. I think you did a good job. And you hand quilted it too. Super.

What a pretty quilt! You did a great job!

brendadawg 03-20-2010 04:36 PM

Your quilt is beautiful! The colors are so "soothing". It would be nice to snuggle with it.

Millstream Mom 03-20-2010 04:51 PM

I think your quilt is absolutely beautiful! You must be so pleased! I'd have never thought it was you first quilt - gorgeous!

Beautiful hand stitching and great combination of colors.

littlebear 03-20-2010 05:12 PM

What pattern block did you use? It is beautiful. I also am working on my first full (queen) quilt. It's a sampler quilt. The first one I made was the yellow brick road for a baby.

rein 03-20-2010 06:25 PM

Holy Cow! I am WAY impressed! You totally rock girlfriend! I agree with others - I doubt this is your first attempt, I can hardly believe your hand quilting job - and I am totally awaiting your next project. (Glad you are hooked just like the rest of us). Thanks for sharing.

JCL in FL 03-20-2010 06:44 PM

Excellent!! Love it.

Lucky Patsy's 03-20-2010 06:59 PM

Congratulations! You have definitely created a keeper!

Gal 03-20-2010 07:05 PM

Hi Little Bear, Thank you very much, the pattern I used was a simple nine patch set on point, I think it only looks complicated becaused I fussy cut the flowers for the nine patch.


Hi Rein, This truly is my first attempt, I photographed the good end LOL, seriously I have been a sewer for 40 years I learnt from my Mother, my sewing history includes wedding gowns, evening wear, dolls, soft furnishings, curtains, etc etc etc so you can see I am a relatively experienced sewer but I had never ever attempted a quilt before!!!!!!
I am totally hooked now and already am saving scraps for the next one.

Absolutely wonderful! I adore hand quilting. What's next?

Cheryl Gaunt 03-21-2010 12:05 PM

Your quilt is beautiful. I just pieced my 1st quilt top in the "Monkey Wrench" pattern. Now I just have to learn how to
quilt it. Maybe I will try a Nine Patch quilt - it look pretty easy.

MoMoSews 03-21-2010 12:51 PM

It's beautiful. Great color choices. :thumbup:
