Of Quilts and things...

Looking around at everyones creativeness (?) I was inspired to make a quilt. Yes, I know that just because I made a bag...doesn't mean I can sew, but I wanted to try anyway. Etsy is a fabulous place for all things crafty. I looked around and found a pattern that seemed easy enough, even for me! Bought all the supplies Saturday and got to work...well I'm done!
It's all wrong and uneven and I love it! The finished size from the pattern is 50 x 50 but I made mine closer to 60 x 60 only because the batting was cut 60 x 60 only now I find out that the batting shrinks?!
I don't have a good picture of it yet but as soon as I do I'll share with you first!

I love the revolver necklace too.. Hopefully it's not gone before I can purchase it!!

I've always wanted to try to make a quilt but just haven't gotten around to it. Can't wait to see some pictures!
