if you can believe it

Here it is. my quilt top. It took me forever to decide how I wanted to put it together but here it is -- two weeks later. It went really fast once I decided on a pattern and then we (Carter, Logan and I) all got sick and it got pushed to the side for other necessary things.

Take a peek: It's all Mary Engelbreit fabric a that I had collected over some time. I do need to rebaste it cuz it puckered a bit in the back while pinning and then I'm tackling machine quilting for the first time. I've gotten myself a walking foot, understanding that this will make the job a bit easier but I definitely will gladly accept any advice any of you might have in this area! (sorry about the poor images. I was really struggling with my camera, the light, the black fabric and Carter's need to be all over my quilt that day.)
