    I have been a regular on the QB for almost 2 years and realized I never posted pictures of my very first quilt. I hand quilted it and it was made about 18 years ago.

    This is awesome. First quilt! I did a rail fence and thought I was wonderfully skilled (rofl). This walks rings around my first one. Gorgeous. Thanks for sharing.
