First Quilt




These are two pages I did awhile ago. I was the only quilter in my family for many years. My baby sister took up the hobby a couple of years ago, and this past year I taught my grandaughter some of the basics. This was her first attempt. She didn't want to wait till I brought a hoop, so she just worked on the top of the table and made a quilt for her dolls. It was neat to see her work diligently on that quilt. The stitches were long and uneven, but so were my first ones. I believe I was 12 when I made my first quilt. She is 9.
I used Imagination Project grid paper and I believe the patterned paper is Cherry Arte. I also used Doodlebug trims, a Fiskars punch, and Prima chipboard alphas.
