My first Queen sized quilt update!

Started my first large queen quilt last week. It is called the magic square quilt and I saw the idea in Jenny Doans tutorial on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XddSxGAlLQ0&list=PLBjL-s7RFBb1akI0uOd7EjJqj-JneXAB_&inde   I also take Jenny's quilting class on Craftsy http://www.craftsy.com/class/Quilting-Quickly-Patterns-Techniques-Tips/9 

I am learning a lot and really enjoy Jenny's tutorials!

Last friday Theo helped me with shopping and went to my appointment and pharmacy with me. I love hanging out with my son when he has a day off of school. 

I am almost done joining my "magic quilt" squares! I need to order my black strips for the sashing around my blocks. I really hope to learn how to post pictures on this blog! some day maybe even do my own picture tutorials. I will finish my big quilt as my budget allows. I also still need to get my border fabric & black muslin for the back of my quilt. I chose The ASTER by windham and used 1 jelly roll and one layer cake in that line!

I need to get a good chair for my back as I am having problems when I sit at the machine for to long. 

Have a great week everyone!
