Pinning the Layers

Tonight, I had my first safety-pinning experience with my quilt. Gloria had warned me that I should have a friend assist me with this process, but of course, being Ms. Independent that I am, I didn't listen. It honestly wasn't too bad once I got everything straightened out between the three layers, and this was no easy task with my small dining room table. I had to go along and make sure the backing was placed correctly, matching up with the front and batting as best I could. I'm a little nervous though because it didn't seem as bad as I thought it would be. Of course, I'm expecting the worse because I'm worried about the material slipping so I placed tons of safety pins through the materials. Sorry Gloria in advance if I did this step incorrectly and you'll be helping me remove them all tomorrow :-\

However, like this entire process, it was a nice experience. Within the past week or so, its seemed as the quilt it making itself. Its coming together so quickly. I almost hate to see it end. So that's why I've already started a second one :)
