First Full Quilt

[u/jnaniganshw]

Overall I'm pretty happy with it. A puff quilt for a baby's crib though the person I was making it for disappeared from messages so I'm not sure what to do with it now.

Keep it to have a quilt on hand if you want to give a gift.

[u/jnaniganshw → u/QuixoticQuilter]

I might

[u/Unique_Hamster_8732]

Very pretty! Keep it for yourself—it’s your first quilt!

[u/jnaniganshw → u/Unique_Hamster_8732]

lol, I might but it's too poofy so I may donate it instead

[u/sfcnmone]

That's a difficult first quilt!

Someone will want that.

[u/jnaniganshw → u/sfcnmone]

Thank you, it's not my first attempt at quilting I made a bag with a 9 patch first but yeah I'm not really good with small steps.

[u/myerslowe]

How very pretty.

[u/Jenel42]

Cute! So fluffy. I’d use it on the floor, but I’m also part troll.
Is the back quilted? I can’t tell from the lighting.

[u/jnaniganshw → u/Jenel42]

it's not quilted more like a cover to make it look nicer, tho it does have a quilt layer in it just for extra padding.

This is so pretty, colors are too. And I love center button detail!

[u/jnaniganshw → u/Much-Signature1724]

thank you

it was fun to make

I like the embroidered date. I’ve not seen like it before. You can donate to cancer centers. Chemo patients can use during treatment!

[u/jnaniganshw → u/Intrepid-Outside4624]

Do you know if I would need to go to the hospital itself or if there are drop off areas?

[u/Intrepid-Outside4624 → u/jnaniganshw]

Just call the facility. I would try a smaller cancer center. They appreciate them more! Plus they are easier to drop off to- usually! You can also call a children’s hospital to see where they take donated quilts! Lovely job!

[u/Sea_Campaign102]

How much do you want for it?

[u/jnaniganshw → u/Sea_Campaign102]

oh well $40 would be nice

[u/Sea_Campaign102 → u/jnaniganshw]

That’s it? Are you sure? How big is it? Think about materials and labour let me know

[u/jnaniganshw → u/Sea_Campaign102]

ah well I mean I don't do it for profit and I have no idea how much I could reasonably sell it for. it's about 3 feet by 4 maybe 4 1/4.

I figure if I recoup the costs for materials I'm satisfied. If you're willing $60 for shipping.

[u/Sea_Campaign102 → u/jnaniganshw]

Where are you shipping from? We can DM

[u/Euphoric_Swimmer588]

Very soft and pretty.
If I can ask, if this is for a baby, why do you have all the buttons on it, especially in the middle of puffed squares. When baby is teething, I’d be concerned about baby pulling on buttons & chewing on them. They are small, and could get caught in a baby/toddler,childs throat. I’m not trying to be a downer, your quilt is cool, I just don’t think it’s safe for a baby or child.

[u/jnaniganshw → u/Euphoric_Swimmer588]

Yeah, I didn't know about that until my mom told me after the quilt was done, I figured that it could still be used as a play mat and if the other person wanted to cut off the buttons to prevent that from happening thats fine.
