My first quilt ever....even though you cant see it LOL

Since I posted the second quilt I thought I should post the first quilt that I made, it was a couple of years ago.My Memaw did the binding and it was tied not quilted on the top.My nephew loves his dinosaurs.This is the best picture I could get of it. My nephew is such a handsome boy and my puppy son Charlie adores him.

The second quilt that I have ever made in my life.........

and it is a doll quilt. It is also the first time I ever did free motion quilting. I clearly have a lot to learn. I know I did the binding wrong ,but I still love it.Thinking about my goals in the previous post I think I may be over reaching a bit but I am still going to give it a shot. Some of the people on my list may end up getting lap quilts ! hee hee but I am determined to make a nice quilt top for Quilts of Valor.I think the doll quilts could very easily become an obsession.

My goals for 2009

1.) To make bed size quilts for my Mom,Memaw,Kim,Terri,Sami,Amy,Lisa and myself
2.) To make a war time quilt top for Quilts of Valor by July 4th Qovf.org
3.) To make a lot of Christmas/birthday presents instead of buying things at the store
4.) To make an Amy Butler hand bag
5.) To make some mini doll quilts
