Finished: Lemon Squares Quilt

   I have officially finished my first quilt! I join the ranks of the mighty! Of course, this isn't truly my first finished quilt. I did make my nieces each whole cloth quilts last year for Christmas. However, this quilt was the first quilt I ever attempted and pieced. It was my first attempt at quilting in general and boy howdy has it been a learning experience.

   I learned how one can do everything wrong and still be proud of the outcome. Since starting this quilt I have become a lot more comfortable with my machine, its use, and how I approach projects. Still, this quilt is a milestone, the completion of the first quilting project I ever attempted. I am happy to have it finished and out of the Work In Progress pile. I am mostly happy to say I did it! I finished this ambitious project!

   Best yet- this quilt is definitely kitty approved. I cannot get the buggers off it so I can use!
This project is being linked to Fabric Tuesday and Work In Progress Wednesday

      Thank you! It really tested my mettle being my first quilt and all but I am happy to finally see it completed. I now hope to move on to more difficult piecing.

      I always consider my cats to be the connoisseurs of fine taste. :)

    Yellow/grey/white quilts always look so good and especially with cute cats rolling around on them :)

      Yes, it is definitely my favorite color family and matches my house, and rather my cats, quite well.
