1st Quilting Project: COMPLETE!


I finished my first quilting project! Well, half of it. I didn't do everything right, but I learned from my mistakes, and that's what's important. The placemat tutorial really was helpful, but I would like to watch someone quilting. You know, see their technique and figure out what I'm doing wrong/could be doing better. My friend Melanie quilts...mayhaps I shall talk her into a live demo!

  2. LIKE, LIKE, LIKE. How many are you making? I made 12 and the binding on number 12 definitely looks better than on number 1.

  3. i bought enough fabric to make 2 of these for us (since there's only 2 of us), but I bet I could make 3. my plan is to buy some different fabric and make at least one set as a gift. more practice, great gift!
