throwback week - my first quilt

while going through my whole "room cleaning" madness (which is still happening... ugh) i managed to locate one thing i had been searching for.  i located the first quilt i had ever made... and when i did, i had quite a good laugh over it.  i remembered it being much more... put together i guess i would say.  i washed it, just to freshen it up before i photographed it, and i'm not so sure if that helped at all.  it's a little wonky, there is a giant hole in the side where the seam split, and the blocks are all over the place...
but i still love it.

the fabric is adorable... i just love those little piggies.
and i feel like this is something i would want my kid to try and do when they're 7 or 8 or however old i was when i made it.  i have to say, it's quite an accomplishment for someone at that age, and i'm sure that's why i'm proud of it... and why i kept it around so long.  in all it's lopsided glory, it is absolutely one of a kind :)
happy friday everyone!
i'm headed back home today, so i'll catch you on the flip side!
