Hmm, looks like my borders are wavy in the pictures. Oh well, I am nothing if not an imperfect quilter, though I did measure like you're supposed to and really tried to make them fit!
The thing I'm really happy with is the quilting. I know it isn't great but this is my first try at doing free motion feathers and it was such fun! In the white squares I quilted feathered wreaths and in the borders a slightly curvy feathered vine.
Maybe you can make out the quilting in this picture. Imperfect, but addictive.
Now that's done and I am so ready to start cutting into some more fabric!

I saw this on Quiltstory and had to leave you a comment as to how beautifull I think it is - never realised that it was your first post......if this is the start.. the rest of your blog also looks fantastic.
Indianna, What a kind, encouraging comment! You made my day. Thank you so very much!
Love all your quilts. I am a Kaffee Fassett fan, so that quilt looks terrific to me. The baby quilt is so cute and your quilting on it looks super.
I just found your blog! I LOVE your "Chain Link" Quilt. I am considering prarie points on a future quilt...they certainly add charm, especially when you use many colors! Great job!
Thanks Liz & Susan! Your comments mean a lot!
