Crafty: First time quiting

So I found my half-finished quilt at home and put myself to work completing it. I have to say quilting is much more work than I first thought! I kept getting tangled up in the lengths of squares strung together and then they would get rotated to the wrong direction. I don't recommend choosing a complicated pattern as your first quilt - I think mine was on the cusp of what I could deal with as a first timer.

I based the design on this one from the Moda Bake Shop website.

The finished product:

Top shows the pieces laid out and ready to sew together and bottom shows the finished product. Size wise it is small but big enough to cover your lap when sitting down.
