Week 4 - More Progress

All the pieces together. 

Borders on.

Onto the quilting...

I'm stitching with gold thread.  I have never used metallic thread before and had to do some experimenting with samples.  The thread kept breaking.  I changed needles numerous times until I determined that a denim 80 needle worked wonders!  I have a regular cotton thread in the bobbin. 

Metallic thread stitching.
