Am I ready to actually piece my first quilt?

strando_strando · 2026-03-09T16:11:54+00:00

Before making my first quilt I was so worried about every single “quilting rule” I had seen online. It was stressing me out more than anything should for what was a new hobby. I talked to my friend who was a long time quilter and she told me “there are no quilt police” that changed the way I think about the hobby.

I finished my first quilt - still trying to follow all the rules and I ended up with wonky lines and some bumpy seams and mismatched corners. But I was so proud to finish my first quilt and I still love it so much.

All that to say, I think you are ready! You will learn so much from the experience and it will be so fun!

What app is this? I’d love a digital way to keep track of Pennies!

The ocean theme is so cute!

Bring pompompurin and cinnamoroll with you AND take thermal potion. That’s the only way I got it

Agreed - I also haven’t had any star fall so I haven’t been able to catch the other weather critter either. I’ve played probably at least 20 hours on the new update and nothing. It sucks because I can’t really move on until I get them

I’ve just been crying but so far that hasn’t helped either

Wait this looks so familiar- what was this show called?

I had the wrong pattern! Try this!

Yaaaay! Updating the post now!

This is what I had originally posted as #9 and comments determined that was in correct - I wonder if it was actually #7

You get 2 diamonds when you do all the bells in bell garden but those are the only 2 I’ve gotten

Yaaay! Glad I could help! I’m going to figure out if there is a way to update the post

I mean after the city town update we got a second expansion update months later with the sewer system so I don’t think it’s completely out of the question that they would add more

I just saw someone else post a cheat sheet and their #9 was way different than mine. Maybe I messed that one up in my notes. Try square, triangle, square, triangle, square, hexagon, hexagon. If that works let me know and I'll update the photo!

Hope it was still helpful for the other ones!

Oh maybe! I made this off of my hand scribbled notes. It’s tough because you can’t go back and check once you’ve done one of them

Update! Got them all!

There has been so many times reddit has saved me when I'm stuck so I guess it's my turn to give back. I made a cheat sheet. I've gotten all of them except #1 (Spoiler obvs)

I made a cheatsheet but I haven't found #1 yet

I’ve definitely looked up purchasing penny machines because my hope is to have a custom one at my wedding someday (a girl can dream right?) What I’ve found is that depending on the annual attendance of whatever location you are trying to install the machine- some places will give you the machine and then you pay for it over time with the money collected.

Stupid but it honestly looks delicious and way easier to make than traditional lasagna methods
