    Default Here are some pictures of my Sampler quilt

    These are pictures of the first quilt I ever attempted. I made it using a book from WalMart about learning to quilt. I still have to do some repairs to the corners, my mitered corners did not turn out correctly. I will repair them and then hand quilt it.

    Nice quilt. I've always loved the Sampler quilt because you always learn so much by doing it.

    Love those colors too.

    Wow! Nice quilt. They take a lot of time, but well worth it in the end. You did a very nice job on it. I haven't quilted for a very long time.

    Thanks, it was sure a learning exerience. I have lots of seams that did not match but it was fun to make.

    Can I give you a little tip:

    You never tell others that you have seams that don't match!!

    You've done an awesome job for your first one!!

    I can't believe this is a pic of your first quilt. That just amazes me. It looks great.
