Yeah, I made it!!

Do you remember my goal to finish the stitching part of Holland Springtime? Of course you do :)
Well, I'm proud I can say: I made it before the end of May, the stitching is done! Now I can add the beads.


And another goal is reached. I wanted to finish Red Delicious this month and I did. The binding is finished and it hangs at my bedroon wall. I hope DH likes it, otherwise he will have to close his eyes entering the bedroom ;)

I have been working on this quilt for a year and a half and I think I will miss it. It's the first I ever actually quilted and I really love how it turned out.

Fantastic stitching on Holland Springtime. Looking so much forward to see it beaded as well, although that's probably a hell of a job to go.
LOVE also your quilt. It turned out gorgeous.
