Well, I did it. I was attempting to make my first quilt (a 9-patch baby quilt), by the time Sew Mama Sew quilting month was done, and I just made it! Here are the pictures: it’s a little rustic, but I’m okay with that … it looks homey and cuddley and is going off in the mail to my new nephew tomorrow. The Sew Mama Sew blog during quilting month has been a great incentive/inspiration to get this done … their list of binding tips and how-tos came just in the nick of time!
