My first quilt

Oh boy...I started this a few months back and threw it aside out of frustration with the quilting part of things. My daughter kept seeing it sitting there untouched and hounded me to finish it for her so I finally did. She doesn't care about all the mistakes and it makes her happy so I am satisfied. I can't say I'll be making another quilt any time soon, though!

It's made out of scrap fabric except for the backing which is yellow flannel. I started out on this adventure to see if I could do it. I read lots of instructions on the internet and went for it. Sometimes that's just what we need to do to learn and grow. I'm sure the next one will be better, right?
