About 3 weeks ago I decided I wanted to make a new quilt for our bed. The comforter we have now is pretty, but I want something more "homey"...and what is more "homey" than something homemade?? I had a couple yards of fabric from a curtain I dreamed of making. I really love the pattern so I decided to find other fabrics that would go well with it. I chose....
Pretty, right? The only problem is that I didn't pre-wash the fabric!! I didn't know I was supposed to do this before cutting until I was already halfway through. So my plan now is to just...go with it! I told Josh he HAD to keep it clean because it might shrink when I wash it. However, I know that won't happen, so I have already come to terms with the fact that this quilt is a practice quilt. I am still going to try my best, but I won't be heartbroken when it gets messy. I might turn it into wall art by putting it in a frame...if it shrinks...and if I like it enough. Yes, I am already thinking this far ahead.
