qltnbe Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Although I have had my new Millenium since March, I am just now getting around to doing something productive with it. Right after I ordered her, I broke my arm, so that put me back about three months, and then life has just gotten in the way along with working, too. I know...just excuses. But I thought I would share my first two quilts off my Milliie. I was told not to do anything that I am totally emotionally involved with since I am such a perfectionist. I wouldn't want to get frustrated with something that I really love. Anyways, the first one was a b/w/yellow that I did the popcorn panto on and the second one is a houndstooth baby quilt that didn't come out as square as it should have, so I thought it would make for good practice (I did practice on a couple large muslin pieces before jumping into quilts. So, here are my two so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
