Daffs, squirrel, quilting, new toy!

Aren't daffodils lovely, a really smiley flower.
If you look closely you can see a squirrel in the tree. He was trying to get to the nuts, but couldn't.
More quilting, need to add the veins on the leaves next. The thread kept breaking. I was using a variagated thread on top and a different plain thread underneath, something I've done for years without a problem. Eventually I changed the thread underneath and realised that it was slightly thicker that the top thread. All is well now and the leaves grew rapidly.
My new toy arrived this week. Have tested it and it works. Just got to get to grips and do some real work with it.
Bye.
