Quilt Entry 1

Quilt Block OneI started on my quilt this week.  I’ve never done one before and actually never wanted to make quilts until recently.  I had in my mind that quilts only looked a certain way and I wasn’t a huge fan.  And then my friend Bev, showed me quilts from magazines that were not your grandmother’s quilts.  Bev let me borrow the pattern which I am now using.  At first, I was going to try to do just a small one but then Paul wanted one for our bed…so my quilt grew.  My quilt is browns and oranges…the main blocks are african in print.  The one I finished today was the african mask…I need to do 4 more like this one.  Each block is 18 inches wide so it’s quite a large block.  

Who would have thought that I would have become this interested and consumed with quilting?  I am already imagining my next one….one at a time…right?  :)
