Quilt making!

So..this week I finished my second quilt ever!! And I'm really quite please with how it turned out! I used 4-5 different fabrics, and cut them in squares.

I was inspired by the quilt on this site!

and then pieced them together...I added the batting and the flannel backing then used the free-motion stitching feature on my machine!



Love how if turned out! And my 10 yr old loves it too! Here are some pics! Thanks for looking!
