My first quit block

Front Back

Don't laugh, but here it is. I was just dying to put my new sewing machine to work and begin to explore the world of quilting. What I learned?? That piecing is much harder than it looks. I cut the strips, sewed them together (with the help of my first quilting book that Anne helped me pick out, thank goodness), and voila, I had several pieces that didn't even come close to being the same size. So, I had to really work to get them together! A little crooked, but it's a start!
