First quilt made for Lilliana


First quilt
Originally uploaded by Rickrack and Ribbons.
I have been swamped with homework this week and with preparing our lower level for new flooring. Plus, I can't do a whole lot of sewing since my room is in boxes. I am now living vicariously through pictures of projects finished and all your blogs. So, I thought I would show you a picture of the first quilt I ever made. I made it with Lilliana (the link is a baby picture of her she is 14 now) about 4 years ago. It is string pieced- very easy and very fun.

I hope everyone is enjoying there weekend I must get back to the books!!

What a gorgeous quilt - I can't believe it was your first! My first quilt was a hideous and ill-conceived mix of fabrics and colors.

Love your idea of the fabric quarters in the dish drainer! Sooo clever!
