It's a start. I turned it inside out and sewed around--I like a binding better. I tried to do circles around the darker part--didn't like it--tore it out and just stippled. I just can't seem to get the hang of this quilting thing, unless I use my walking foot. Wow--it took a LONG time. :shock: It also took a LOT of thread. I soooo admire quilters. I just like making tops.

It's very tricky to stipple and keep track of where've I've been and to not cross lines... I touched, but didn't cross. :wink: And I just ended it with small stitches...there was no where to go!

I think I may keep this one to toss on the coffee table (that looks like a small picnic table).... feels like it was a practice job.

Onward to the next project.

The back--in case I get sick of the front.

I think your stippling looks great. I'm still kind of new at it myself & yours looks better than mine. It takes LOTS of practice. Nice quilt too, love the back fabric :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

I love it Karla. I dont see anything wrong with your quilting at all. From the pictures it looks like it just has same color binding. You are just being self-critical. So let up on the ole gal already!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I forgot to mention I do NOT like that first scrap border. Yuck! It doesn't blend at all--just looks like marching blocks....

It doesn't fit on the table--too short. :roll:
