Quilting

This is the fabric for the quilt I'm starting with my mom. This is my very first quilting project, and her second. (She is a very experienced seamstress, though. And such a perfectionist. She is Ma Ingalls for the 21st century, I tell you.) I'm a bit intimidated by the project -- and it is to be truly my project because she is finishing her master's degree this semester, and so doesn't have a lot of time to do it with me, other than helping me get started. The pattern we're using is star at my window, a pattern my mom found at Quilter's Cache. And, it's going to be hand-quilted! Wow! I'm excited, but also a bit nervous. Here's my very first completed block:

Hopefully to be completed by this summer... We shall see. ;)
