It took me the whole day yesterday but finally the patchwork of my first quilt is done.

As I didn’t have any instructions I just had to give things a try and kept on sewing and ripping until I finally got the hang of it. Allthough not all the corners are matching a 100% I think the overall look is pretty good.

And here’s another picture that gives an impression on how the quilt will cover our bed:

I’ll need to add a binding and a backing, for which I’ll probably just use some plain and simple cloth. And then I’ll have to think about how I want the quilt to be quilted, but I think I’ll keep it simple and will just hand quilt the edges. And when I’m done, the sleeping room might already be renovated and re-decorated! In one and a half weeks I’ll finally have my free days from work and from then on, nothing in our apartment will be safe!
