    It came out great! I wouldn't bother ripping out...just do it differently on the next one if you aren't happy with it. My grandkids have a few quilts each, except the youngest. She's 6 months and I haven't gotten to the 2nd one for her yet.

    Does your machine have a Serpentine stitch (S shaped)? It's a great alternative to stitch in the ditch. Very forgiving if you don't have a STID foot or steady hand.

    Best tip - spray starch! It really makes a difference in how the fabrics handle, especially on the bias or if you are off grain a little.

    That's a great looking quilt. Well done. And congrats on the (soon to be) grandbaby.

    I looked and looked, but gosh darn it, every corner matches perfectly. You sure get a passing grade for your first quilt.
