When I look at my first quilts I wonder what I was thinking. My skill level has improved and color choices have changed. If I did not start there, I wouldn't enjoy the quilting today. Your quilt is wonderful!

I think it will be loved.

Very pretty colors. Looks nice to me and if it's cat approved then it must be ok. Sue

I agree!!! And it's a lovely quilt!!!

1. Your quilt is NOT awful. Now cut that out!
2. You wisely chose a simple design for your first. Good thinking!
3. Your color choices were excellent. See how well this is going?
4. You actually finished it! Finished is better than perfect.
5. All of us improve our skills by trying new mistakes with every quilt we make. Look forward to the next one.
6. Good job!

The back is asymmetrical thanks to some good advice I got here. The quilting is awful and my binding stitches are AWFUL. But the cats like it, and I think the parents will too.

Like the quilt, but love the calico. She looks like my Shannon cat from eons ago.
