Stippling and Ripping

After a few hours of practice stippling, I worked up my courage to begin stippling my first real project - the Apple Filigree pictured in the previous post.  The results were dissappointing, so now I'm rip, rip, ripping.  Once I get the stippling out, I still have to figure out how to quilt this.  Never quilted anything with applique or embroidery before.  Its a little scary!
