To the max! I have no idea how to properly quilt things (ie reinforce etc) but I sure like to try it anyways. xd Asides from the skirt, I made a mat for my dorm and a pillow case!

The mat - It's not really that big. I followed a tutorial found on craftzine.com actually for a bath mat but I use mine to decorate my floor space in my dorm room. It's got an old towel as the back.

The pillow - I regret not making the squares bigger for seam allowances. Now if I wash it I fear that it will unravel as it's already sort of doing at one end. confused Uh ohhh! This one is just the prototype and the next will be made much better.

On that note, are any of guys quilters? Do you have any tips?

Thanks!

Sewing for me really was one of those things where it started off very very frustrating but after a while there was less cursing at my machine and patterns, haha.
