    Hi, I just started a quilting class about 3 weeks ago. It has been fun and challenging since I never really learned how to sew. I have my mother-in-laws Bernina sewing machine (that makes lots of noise, but sews a straight seam). I am excited to learn and to be able to make quilts to give to my loved ones. My main concern now is after the quilt top is made, will I be able to hand quilt it or would I be able to use my sewing machine? Hope to learn a lot from this site.
