Hi,
I was introduced to quilting by Betsie Bauman a teacher at Hiram College and boy do I have the bug, cannot get enough of buying fabric. I would love to learn to quilt by hand. Can anyone recommend a good DVD, book or website to learn from?

Thanks
Kim :lol:

Hi Kim, I would like to welcome you. I can't help you with the hand quilting questions though, as I am not sure how a needle and thread are supposed to work :wink: I do it all on my machine, except the binding, and I tried that!! Hope you find lots of info, and learn to do beautiful stitching.

Welcome to the board from Ireland. 24 hours a day is plenty, except that they want us to do a lot of other things in that, like cook, clean, eat, go shopping, etc. etc.
