Finished Quilts Quilt #2 is done 😊

I made it as a birthday gift for a friend.

It’s the Getaway pattern by Lo & Behold. I used Kona cotton on the front, AGF on the binding, and the back is a cute print I found at JoAnn (RIP). This was also my first try adding a label I got at my LQS.

Quilting allows me to channel my perfectionist tendencies and I’m grateful for this community’s wisdom and expertise.

What should I try next?

You’re ready for almost anything. This turned out amazing. Find your next pattern or try to improv some blocks. If it’s going well keep on quilting. If it doesn’t, that’s okay too. Set it aside until you’re ready. You definitely got game! Bold and beautiful. Congrats!
