The sample for my lesson

Today was New Year's Day. My husband lay down on a sofa and he enjoyed watching the New Year's programs on TV all day, meanwhile, I made a sample for my hand sewing lesson all day. The sample was a pair of turtle coasters. It was based on my mother's design, but I changed the design greatly. Because her design was difficult to sew, so I thought my students might not like it. I finished making it by midnight.
