Hello quilty friends! Well, I am finally able and ready to hand quilt my first granddaughter's quilt... I've only hand quilted two-three times and it's been 3-4 years... I've forgotten how!!!! AAACCCKKKKK!!!
I picked up needle and thread and my hands don't remember how!!! I know I watched a few YouTube videos that I found using you as guides... So here I am again! Any suggestions? I just can hardly believe this, but I just don't remember the motions.... Please help??? THANK YOU!!

If you go back to youtube, put hand quilting for beginners in the search bar, that will bring up a list of those videos.

And since you're not remembering the motions, you might want to make up a small practice sandwich before starting on the actual quilt. Will help you get back in the groove. And you can use that piece over and over to take a few stitches between quilting sessions as well to get a rhythm going before working on your 'real' quilt.
