Day 152. Hand Quilting goes SO slow!

I'm just doing a simple pattern, teacher said mine was a little too much work for what was really required and for the first time doing it.  Boy was she right, this is time consuming. So I added the arrows so you can see what stitching I'm talking about.  I spent about an hour and half and didn't even finish one star...yikes!

3 things I'm grateful for today:
1) Cheesy, bad, tearjerker movies..at least they make me laugh in their rediculousness
2) That I got a lot of work done today, despite all the interuptions
3) That my husband continues to confuse zucchini and cucumbers, because at least it makes me laugh and the truth is sauteed cucumbers aren't really all that bad!
