Frustrated!

Maybe this is a "dumb" question, but why do you have to do the "rocking" stitch? Isn't it easier to go "up and down" (is this one stitch at a time???)? Is there a specific reason for the rocking stitch? I haven't hand quilted anything (yet) and just want to know. Thanks for starting this thread.

I learned counted cross stitch prior to learning quilting and counted cross stitch uses a stab stitch making one stitch at a time. It may be slower but it is what I have always done when hand quilting. I too cannot get even stitches when trying to do a running stitch.
