I'm excited to be joining Melissa at Tilly's Nest in my first ever Quilt-A-Long! Here are the fabrics I picked up today for my quilt top. We are making a chicken applique lap quilt. This is good for me because it won't be so big that I get intimidated about getting it finished. The first five fabrics are for my blocks and chicken appliques, the fabric on the right is for the borders.
I have pieced quilt tops before but have never actually quilted, I have always finished my projects by tying, so this is new for me.
I'm a little late to the party but figure I can catch up easily enough. You can join in too here! My fabrics are in the washing machine and I hope to get everything cut out tomorrow. I hope ya'll don't get too sick of seeing my updates! ;)

Candy,
Your fabric is so pretty! Looking forward to your Quilt-A-Long progress reports.
LOVE your fabric choices! Looks so spring-like. Do, please, keep us all updated as you go along. There's nothing like quilting show-and-tell to keep other quilters inspired. Fun, fun, fun!

I'm afraid that learning to quilt (for me anyway), will not be this year. Some day....some day....
