My First Ever Computer Feedsack Quilt

Been cutting the pieces in my photo programs. Trying to re-create a crazy quilt like the ones my mother and I used to make. We called them "comforts". They were tied instead of hand quilted. Most had an old worn out blanket instead of a batting to keep us warm. Mom made them in the order of a string quilt, but we didn't have rolls of the "strings". We just cut and sewed the fabric as we needed to.

Here is the first square. Each square is almost 8 inches. I will continue working on my new quilt in Adobe Photoshop Elements 3 and Microsoft Picture It. Never dreamed I would have so much fun with this pc. I can feel my mom smiling down on me as I continue on. She called me her "dreamer" as she never new what I would be into next. The bad thing is that I never know what I am going to be into next!!!

Don't tell anyone, but I've been finding some of these pretty feedsacks online and just using pieces of them!!!! Hope some of those eBay buyers don't get feedsacks with missing fabric!!! :o) I would recommend this way of quilting to most anyone. It doesn't take up much space and doesn't mess up the house.
