In the process of getting some girly girl time, I have been roped into a blog party! We girls like to talk about our firsts! This quilt sampler was my first! A big shout out to Gay K who walked me through this from start of Jan 06 until finish April 07. Gay is still my friend, aren't you, Gay?! Hello, Gay! Oh, that's right! Gay is on a quilting cruise to Alaska presently and I am NOT speaking to her! Just kidding! Come home, Gay! I call this quilt, School Girl Sampler. I learned that I never, ever want to piece another lover's knot, piecing curves is very difficult on a friendship! Luckily, with quilting friends, mending is always possible! As I am sure Gay will attest to as soon as she returns! Celebrating this first and all the rest!

That is a fantastic first quilt. You did a great job on it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great first quilt! So many techniques conquered at once! Thanks so much for linking up and playing along! Oh, and I wish I was on a cruise with Gay!
ReplyDeleteYou did curves on your first quilt!? Awesome!
ReplyDeleteI'm a little jealous. I want to do a tumbling blocks project, and I just haven't gotten to one yet. And, I agree with the comment above. Curves on your first quilt! Way to hit the ground running :-)
ReplyDeleteVery nice Jessica!! It is Bluetiful!!! Blue is my favorite!! And curves??? You ROCK!! :)
ReplyDeleteLove that sampler. I just finished my first sampler and it goes to my best friend for her birthday :))
