Making a Quilt

I've decided to try my hand at quilting. I've wanted to do it for awhile now. So I got this book, "The Quilter's Bible", and I went to the quilt store, The Christmas Goose, and bought all the fabric and tools I need to make my blocks. The ladies there were absolutely wonderful! When I asked about an easy pattern for a beginner not only did they show me an excellent pattern, A Pocketful of Posies, they made sure I had all the tools I would need to make it.

Anywho I've got all my materials and I sit down with the book and start reading the steps and my mind gets over loaded. Wow! There is way more involved to quilting than just sewing the fabric together. I had to step back and come up with a game plan. This could easily take over all my crafting time and I've still got other projects that I would like to get done sometime this decade like that Dragon Knot. Som I'm rotating, one day stitching, one day quilting.

Hopefully by the end of April I will have page 1 of Dragon Knot done as well as a few squares of my quilt.

Of course when I was planning all this out I completely forgot about school and the final exam is this week. So everything is on hold while I prepare for it. Thankgoodness I've only got one more class after this one.
