Sampler Quilt version 1 ready for quilting
Last year Michelle at Quilting Gallery did a Beginner's Quilt-Along and I thoroughly enjoyed following along every week and making the blocks.  In fact i enjoyed it so much I made each block three times.  The plan was to have three quilts and see how different they would look simply because of colour choices and block placement.  Once the tops were pieced everything came to a grinding halt, using the excuse of problems with my sewing machine I avoided putting the quilt under the machine to do the quilting.  I was scared I would not be able to quilt this top well enough and that it would be ruined.  Well it's time to face that fear,  I've added the wadding and the backing, sorted out the quilting cotton, given the machine a good clean and inserted a brand new quilting needle.  As soon as I get the first few stitches done I'll be fine but right now I'm still feeling rather apprehensive.
