Tooting my Horn

I am so very very proud of myself...and yes I am about to toot my own horn. I made my very first "real" quilt. Well at least the shell of it. I still need to buy the batting, but I am still so proud of my creation so far. I was sitting at work before the kids got there and I had ideas of blankets fly into my head. I drew a few images and left it at that. Later that day I went to Wal-mart to get diapers for James and noticed that the fabric was on sale for 50% off. I saw the most amazing fabric for my creation. I had to buy it which than lead to my hunt for the rest of the fabric I needed to make my quilt. I am so excited. It is so cool to see my doodle become something tangible and something I can be proud of. I am grateful for my daddy who gave me my sewing machine as a graduation present. I have been able to create lots of stuff. So thanks dad for helping me show my art through sewing.
