this is the first quilt i have ever made .. at the time i was really happy w/the outcome ..
music, of course, is my passion and i do like hearts as well .. i thought the two would look nice together ..
so i named this one " For the Love of Music "
i guess the old man felt like he had to be in on the action =op
sample of the blocks
considering i'd never made one b4, i was pretty proud of myself and happy w/the outcome ...
... until ...
i washed it one day and when i took it out of the washing machine, all of the batting was all bunched up and the whole thing was really distorted ..
.. at the time, i didn't realize i had to actually quilt it !
.. i went by the book, word for word, and at the finish of it, it didn't say anything about actually quilting it .. so i thought i was done w/it .. and i had no idea that was what makes it a quilt ! ( nor did i know anything about mitered corners .. )
.. oh ya, and the whole thing was made with straight stitches alone ..
i'm such a dork .. all together now - say it w/me ...
