My first quilt

I have wanted to make a quilt for a really long time, But felt very intimadated by the thought of all those little pieces going together right.

This past week I used paint shop to design what I wanted it to look like. And enlarged each piece to the correct size for a paper pattern.

Then I committed myself by going shopping and buying the fabric.(oops! I gotta do it now!)

The fabric prints were not the same of course, But I think it will be even prettier.

I hope it doesn"t end up in a box in the closet. LOL like a bunch of other things I have started.

This is how the center flower looks. It has a little brighter colors than it looks here. This is as  far as I got. I love the rose print I found.
