So here is my first square. I'm glad I made a sample because I definitely think it needs to be bigger, and I screwed up the seam allowances. But I'm pretty dang proud of myself for getting this far. :-)

My First Quilt Square!
If you've been reading for a while, you will remember that I started a Quilt-a-long quite a while back. Well, I only got as far as cutting the squares when our world was rocked by a surprise set of orders. One day I will finish that quilt, but I've decided that what I really need to propel me is actual need. And we have an actual need here. The quilts we sleep under are falling apart. So I've decided to make a quilt for Caedmon first. Something very simple and made with love for my little man to sleep under (should he ever decide to sleep in his own bed -HAHA!).
