When I posted about my first quilt, I wasn't sure I should post it or even admit I made it! But I did and I am glad I did and I tweeted it too... so I even heard from Mark Lipinski on twitter about posting about your first quilt and them memories it stirs up. Thanks for the great share!Marcia - Crafty Sewing and Quiltinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13233924230499828652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8406675641884483035.post-20986701144626375402011-10-28T20:05:57.826-04:002011-10-28T20:05:57.826-04:00When I look back at my first few projects I did af...When I look back at my first few projects I did after I started quilting again, I am less than pleased with what I see. I am sure that at the end of next year, I will ask myself what I was thinking when I put "those" colors together. The good thing about all these projects is that they are all learning experiences.

I made it in the 1970's when I was in college, and poor. It is made from scraps of things I made for myself, or college friends who were suddenly having babies (ahem) and random bits of this and that. Cotton, polyester, terry cloth, slithery slinky silky stuff. The batting is an old mattress pad and some towels. The backing is some fire engine red twill that my mom had leftover from when she made all of us kids sleeping bags back in the 1960's. It is ugly and indestructible and every square tells a story.pcflamingohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03206688121231793996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8406675641884483035.post-81346735931724546222011-10-28T09:26:49.044-04:002011-10-28T09:26:49.044-04:00You know, I don't thing there's a *wrong* ...You know, I don't thing there's a *wrong* quilt.

Did the sky fall in? nope, was anybody hurt in the making of this quilt? nope, unless the children had the Pajamas riped from their backs (they didn't, did they???) Isn't that how it all started with recycling. No rules in this house, and your quilt turned out lovely.
