sewing my first quilt start to finish! | patchwork quilt

All I can say is WOW! I loved my first time quilting so much, it was such a joy to create such a beautiful piece from a bunch of little squares. A Patchwork Quilt was a great place to start because it was simple to assemble but still striking. Do you enjoy quilting? Which type of quilt was your first?

I have been quilting since a major back injury in 2021 and I love to find/see people making their first quilts. I am so happy for you, you did an amazing job!

It is beautiful!!! Whatever imperfections you see make it even more beautiful as a handmade object of joy and love. It is so satisfying to make a handmade throw or quilt. Its a form of self care /survival skill. Just think when there wasn't a store in every corner to buy a quilt, or even readily available fabric and thread, a woman's family might suffer greatly or worse if she didn't acquire this skill. We are blessed.

it was a joy to watch you make your first quote and it’s beautiful and it really doesn’t need to be perfect. It’s yours to enjoy. I made my first quote recently drove me a little crazy to do it correctly and it came out. All right should be better.

You stitched so much soul into this quilt. Amazing job.

You did a great job! I love seeing young people have an interest in quilting.

Becca, your quilt came out beautiful! My mom and I are working on our 5th quilt. We’ve made a full size quilt for each of her grandchildren. Two of which are my children. Together we can get it done in four to five days. I loved picking out fabrics to make each quilt unique to each child. Watching you make yours, I found that there are different ways of making quilts...like using that fabric adhesive. I’ve never heard of using that. It seems much easier than pinning all the layers together. We need to try that for our current quilt. Loved watching your video as always and I look forward to seeing your next quilt.

That’s truly wonderful, Becca! I’m sitting here, never having quilted before, haven’t stitched a thing in decades, touched a machine in as long..wanting to make a quilt too!!! Just gorgeous!

I am so proud of you !! Its so beautiful dont worry that its not perfect because you made it and that makes it special. Make a vest like that it would be so pretty or a robe would be awesome.

I’m not even into sewing but here I am lol. If it’s Becca I’m watching.

Leo’s giant tooth stole my heart 😂 I am so impressed with your quilt! I’m still cutting squares for my first quilt and I swear that alone is nerve racking and I will have the guidance of an experienced quilt maker! I’m just so impressed with you!!

[threadwinners]

My first quilt was also a patchwork quilt and I loved making it so much! You’ve inspired me to make another!!!!

[cathyclark]

The imperfections make it beautiful and perfectly yours! Love it. You did really well.

This really makes me think I can complete my quilt tops.

Thanks so much for sharing, it looks stunning!! 😍

This is bringing me back to the wonderful memories of my grandma teaching me to make my first quit 😍 Thank you so much for sharing! One tip, in the future you can find free quilt binding calculators online to tell you how many strips of fabric you need for your binding. I don’t love the step of making the binding so I want to make sure I’m only making as much as I absolutely need to.

Way to go! Your first quilt is awesome! I have never soaked my batting. I suggest a rag quilt for your next creation. I like a cotton print for the top layer, then a flannel square for the batting and then a flannel square for the backing. I made one for my dog and she loves it!
