Rainbow in the sky


I've been sewing only for 3 years, but that was a long road from non-sewer to today's level. I was like a sewing fanatic, spoiling yards of fabric and storaging the tops which I was not able to quilt, as far as I simply didn't know how to do that. But what a fun and pleasure to dig into the stash now and discover something that worth finishing :)

Today I want to show you one of the tops I decided to finish. I made it 3 years and dozens of quilts ago and I remeber how I was digging it in the wardrobe thinking that one day I will be grown up enough to try doing something with all those open spaces. Although I am not that good as I dream to be one day, I am saucy enough to have a try :) 

Look what I got.




My big boy posing with the finished quilt. Can't believe, he was just 2 years old when I was sewing this top. And now he's just finished his first semester at school!



During the quilting I also discovered what a weak sewer I was :) The straight lines were not straight, the top went bubbling all the time, was not square enough and etc etc etc. I spent many hours trying to fix my mistakes. Finally I got a nice flat and almost straight quilt :)
It is very valuable for me as something that I made in the very beginning of my sewing road.




And your first quilt? What was it like? And do you keep it?

Have a nice day! :)
