Hello

I have just finished my first quilt. I used jelly roll that I purchased from Missouri Quilt co and also their tutorials for the fence rail pattern. There are a few mistakes but I can live with them. Hubby bought me a new machine for quilting and so this quilt is for him LOL. Family is already placing orders so I guess I will get alot more practice. Also jumped in both feet and freemotion quilted all of it.

Thanks Maggie

PS I have a pic in my photo album can't fiqure out how to get it here though

Hi Maggie,

I posted a comment on your review but I just had to tell you again how impressed I am with your quilt! It is fantastic and I'm sure your DH will love it!

I see many quilts in your future, no?

I never thought that making quilts would be fun. I just finished my second one, a baby quilt, 36x36. Looking forward to making another one! Congrats on your first and may you have many more!!!

Lovely...I used a similar pattern for my first quilt. And after making 10-15 more, I still think it is my best:)
