So close...

To my first quilt finish for 2014. 

One of my very good friends who happened to be the principal at the primary school I taught at gave me this pattern, Simply Pleasures.  I am happy to say the quilt is nearly finished. 

The quilting is done and tonight I sewed on the binding. My weekend task is to stitch it down. 


I just love how the quilt looks. 

Also tonight I ventured in to unknown waters. I had an attempt at stippling. 


It is very dodgy but with practice it can only get better.

    And you now living exactly what you will have told many students over the years... 'practice, practice, practice'... your stipple attempt is really not too shabby!
