My First Quilt

I've been dying to write this post, but wanted to wait until after Christmas because I didn't want to ruin the surprise.

I finally made my first quilt! I made it for Nicholas with a Boston Red Sox theme (his favorite team) for Christmas. He was actually excited when he opened it (I was worried he'd think it was a lame blanket instead of a cool lego set). I have to admit, though, Nicholas is a sweet, sweet boy and wouldn't do anything to hurt my feelings so it's likely he actually does think it's a lame blanket instead of a cool lego set. :-)

The whole process was so fun. I can't believe how satisfying creating something from scratch can be. I can definitely see quilting as a future hobby! This whole project, however, would not have been possible without the help of good friends. Thank you Kariann, Andrea, and Andrea's mom for all your help!
