Not bad, if I do say so myself

I finished my first quilt. It's from the Mod Sampler quiltalong at Oh, Fransson. I made it for my mother-in-law for her birthday, and she loves it.

All wrapped up:

The fabric I used is Flights of Fancy from Moda.

Quilting it was no easy task. It took about four hours to free motion quilt it, and it's really hard work! My arms and neck and back were killing me afterwards.

Next up is either the 9 PIllowcase Quilt from Oh, Fransson using vintage sheets or the Cubic Rhythm quilt from Quilts and More magazine:

I bought the same fabric, which was no cheap deal, thinking I'd make at as another gift for somebody. But once I had the fabric in hand, I loved it so much that I MUST keep it. The fabric is Woodland Bloom by Moda.
