Gabriola Quilt #2

Forgot to add this... It was completed and went over to the island and then I finally finished #1 and stippled it... I decided I need to do the same to #2... so back home it came with me.

I had initally tried to stitch in the ditch but had used a cotton/poly back fabric ( never again) that was wonking all over the place. But I really wanted her to have it so ... off it went.

Gabriola Island

My son and I went over to Gabriola Island for a little summer break with nana and papa, they live over there. We had such a great time. The heat wave hit so we were down in the ocean cooling off, collecting rocks ( a fav thing for me).

My mom is an artist ( http://www.stones-throw.ca/karencain.html)and and has a wonderful studio so Jack was in there creating a holiday journal, printing leaves, painting.
And I finally finished her other quilt for the cottage so I could pass it on. I stippled it and man oh man did it take me awhile... and thread. I'm new to stippling and had no idea how long it would take! But I'm really happy with the results. Now I need to come up with another one for the queen size bed room... hmmmm
