I Did It
This is the first quilt I have ever made. I must say the ladies at my local quilt shop guided me every step of the way. I was hesitant but I shouldn't have been. I learned a lot. It's not perfect by any means. My quilting in the ditch didn't always stay in the ditch. I think overall it's a good quilt. I was sad to give it away today. I felt like my first quilt should be mine but it was a job for All Stitched Up. I am looking forward to finishing my Saturday sampler quilt for myself.
I do think there will be more quilts in my future !

You did indeed do it! And you're right -- it does seem like something you keep. Oh well. Good cause, right? And for the record -- as much as I try, I never stay perfectly in that ditch. It turned out beautifully. A big pat on the back to you.
The quilt is beautiful! The receiver is very lucky indeed... I'm not sure I could have given it away... looks like an awful lot of work went into it!
Congrats! I want to make one too. Sorta scared to though.
there's nothing stopping you now! it looks wonderful. My first quilt was a bit wonky...not too even. yours looks wonderful!
yeah for you!! It would have been painful to give away my first quilt. good for you!! can't wait to see your sampler in it's glory!
OMGosh -- it's beautiful, B! And I think I would have had to keep it for myself.
