I made my first quilt over the last two weeks, and I am so proud of it!
I really did better than I thought I would.
(Not to say there weren't some serious moments of frustration and impatience.)
I thought I would make them and sell them on etsy, I made a store and everything.
But this little quilt took me more than 50 hours! Ha! So there would be no profit there.
But I am realizing that there is no need to try to make money at something I enjoy. Do it because I enjoy it and if I make some extra change somewhere along the way, fantastic.
But I don't want that to be my driving force behind the hobby.

So here is my quilt!
It is a baby/toddler/lap/picnic quilt (for me and ruby!)
or whatever people like to call this size.
I just like to call it FINISHED!!!! :)
It is 36"x50"
And, thank you to my wonderful husband for taking great photos!
And to Ariel for decorating her children's room so adorably and letting us use it to take the photos!
