my first completed quilt

It’s been several years in the making, but I have finally completed my first ever quilt. After the conversations Anthony + I had about my making us a quilt, it got my tail in gear on finishing the handful of uncompleted projects sitting in the cabinet. I began this quilt in 2011 (after seeing the design on Bijou Lovely – at the time there wasn’t a pattern but she now offers one!), realized I didn’t know exactly what I was doing when it came to the actual quilting part and put the unfinished piece away. My mistakes would mean the seam ripper + I would be BFF’s. That was a daunting task in and of itself. In March of this year, I decided to get my act together, pulled the quilt out, got to fixing my mistakes, and I finished it a few days before my mom came to town (which was my ultimate goal – to have it finished before she got to NJ!). I’m proud of this quilt and dream of the day when we have a child that uses it as a play mat. I imagine photos in a field with said child and maybe it becoming a lovey. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves! In the meantime, I will use it as a lap quilt.
