first baby quilt
Originally uploaded by sukogirl yeah, I've finally tried quilting and found that I really enjoy it. I took a Quilting 101 class at the Creativ Festival in Toronto. This was a machine quilting class that showed us the basics of cutting out the pieces and sewing them up. I had to refer to online tutorials on finishing the quilt. I found that fabric (color/pattern) choice is very tricky. I really liked these two pieces of fabric, and I thought it would be okay together, but the completed piece is a little drab looking.

how cool, i don't think it looks drab, i like the combo. i've never tried quilting before, i wonder if i'd like it? do you think you will keep doing it?
yes, i definitely want to quilt again. i already have some fabric i want to use for the next one. i might make a table runner or wall hanging. the hardest part is making sure all the pieces are have exact dimensions, otherwise, they don't piece well and it gets very frustrating.
looks great! I love the intermittent pinwheels. one of these days I will try quilting :)
