I got to spend some time with my grandma this weekend, she’s been quilting for 20 years and got me started on my first quilting project, a baby quilt for #2. I thought I’d be a little more agile with all of the measuring and cutting equipment, but it did not come so naturally for me. I did not realize all the precision that went into creating a quilt, everything has to be perfect, even the ironing has to be perfect. I had a pattern all drawn up but once we started piecing the quilt together I realized that it was going to be too small for a crib quilt and decided to go for a 12-cross quilt (3×4 crosses) instead of the 6-cross quilt drawn out above. It was a slow start to our project but I think I’m starting to get the hang of it. Me and Grams are meeting a again in a week or two and hopefully we will more productive now that we’ve (I) figured out our (my) rhythm.
