My first quilt

I'm done! I've completed my first quilt, and I love it! I used Crazy Mom Quilts' Ragged Squares Quilt pattern. I think what drew me to this quilt were the colors that she used. They matched Sara's room perfectly. And, I also wanted something that I could quilt myself. The only issue I had while quilting was a few puckers on the quilt top (which aren't noticeable because of the loud fabrics).The back turned out perfectly. I had such fun making this that I think I'm addicted to quilting.

    What an awesome quilt! And this is your first quilt? No way! You did such an amazing job. Great fabric selection! I love the values and contrasts you used! Quilting is definitely an addictive hobby, beware (but in a good way)!
