Quilt Top Finished

Here's my finished quilt top. I'm loving it, very Christmas RED!


That's all 13 stitcheries for me Chooky as I have my quilt label in the mittens block.

Now I need to go back & look at everyones ideas on how to quilt. That is one of those scary subjects in quilting.

Happy stitching
Tracee xx

Well Done!
I prefer to quilt just the outline of the stitcheries and do any stipple or designs in the borders....I'm sure it looks great quilted all over but I didn't want quilting on the stitcheries themselves. At least that's what I did with GJ.
