My Second Quilt

Pattern Info

Pattern info for this project can be found here:

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

Cotton fabrics, cotton/bamboo batting.

What was your inspiration?

The original pattern called for a completely different set of colors ... but I loved the blues & yellows. It seemed summery and I worked all last summer on it!

What are you most proud of?

This quilt was extremely challenging since I'd only just begun quilting but I learned a lot and I'm happy that I stuck with it!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Precision and organization of cut pieces & colors was important.

Your colors are wonderful. You have done a beautiful job on your quilt.As you have been told, this is not a beginner pattern. Again, very well done. Some times, ignorance is bliss :-) When starting, some times what we don't know is a help. My first quilt, I had all directional fabric except one. That was really challenging. Thank you so much for sharing.
