My first quilt attempt



I am sooo not a quilter lol.. This is only the top half of the quilt top. Im attempting to make Chloe a quilt. The blanket I made her a long time ago is now getting too small. I had bought this fabric back in July and was wanting to make a quilt for her for her birthday but was so big pregnant I did not have the energy to do so. I keep putting it off now.. but Jennifer keeps assuring me that I can do this LOL... well.. so far Ive totally screwed up the pattern. Jacob , Chloe and I had it all layed out on the order it was going to go and some how between the table and my sewing machine the order got all screwed up so it looks all wonky and like theres no pattern at all lol.. I swear there is supposed to be one LOL! Plus! For some reason its not even.. How this happened I have no idea.. I cut everything the same so I have NO clue.. and Im using the new foot on my machine that Jennifer suggested so........ I dunno. But! On a postitve note when I saw man Chlo I screwed it up its not lining up right.. She said who cares its still going to be great. Then she said she was so happy that she had a mom that could sew and that wasnt lazy cause she would have all the nice sewn things she has. So.. that made me feel good.
I have to finish the bottom half but it will have to wait till another day cause Joshy has had enough of me sewing lol.. Plus I have 10 million diapers to get done!
