    Absolutely gorgeous stitches. Years ago, I did a similar thing in class and turned it into a pillow. It has an honored place in my LR.

    What I would suggest to do with this is to frame it. It is lovely.

    Beautiful quilting. Could you make a pillow top?

    Very pretty and I was told the same thing when I took my only hand quilting class: Make your stitches the same length.

    I agree with the teacher that even stitches are more important than tiny ones. I also do one stitch at a time and don't care for the look of tiny stitches. Your work is beautiful!

    OHHHHH BEAR! Those stitches are gorgeous! And they look plenty tiny to me! Everything looks so even and meticulous. Just looking at it I feel relaxed because your stitches are so neat and tidy. Isn't it funny how looking something skillfully done can soothe us? Excellent work! You get an A+ from me!

    Beautiful stitching. I have a friend that took a hand-stitching class last fall at DM and she got so much out of it. Congratulations on such beautiful work.
