My mother-in-law is an avid quilter and I told her I would love to learn. I saw this particular quilt in a magazine she received and I fell in love. She was excited and I was excited so the adventure began. We went to a quilting store and they had the exact fabric I was looking for and we came home ready to start. She showed me how to cut all the pieces. I completed that task. She then showed me how to make a sqaure with the cut pieces. I completed that task and then there was no stopping me :) I finished the 16 12x12 sqaures fairly quickly and now I will learn the new steps for the finishing of the quilt.
This is my 1st quilt and it is for the little one that will be arriving in less than 10 weeks. I still have the border and backing to put on but I wanted to share the progress so far.
My mind is already racing with ideas for future projects (including a quilt for Mathen).
