My Quilting Adventure Begins!

As some of you know, I have recently gotten my dream job working at a huge quilt store in St. Cloud, MN... Gruber's quilt shop!  I love it and am beginning to learn the fine art of quilting.  


We are beginning a project using a book by Tula Pink... you make 100 different blocks, one a week, from fabrics in your stash... when you are done, you put them together for an amazing quilt!  Check out my friend and I's first attempts at making blocks!  
Here is the book we are following...

This is the first set of blocks we will be working on, all of them have some type of cross in them.

These are the first fabrics I picked for the very first block of this project!  I love being able to pick fun fabrics and colors.

My first piece, cut!  

all the pieces for the first 6 1/2 inch block

Me and my sewing buddy!  We are going to have a blast with this.  :)  

This is my FIRST block ever!!!!!!

And, my SECOND!  Yea!


Here are my friend, Pammy's first blocks!  I love the orange and brown one!
