    :cry: This is my first time at trying to make a quilt and I am doing it by hand..I have about 50 small squares that I have completed..After taking the paper off the back I noticed that my stitches were all too loose..So now I have to go and redo all that stitching..Thankfully, I do have a sewing machine so it will be quicker..Just hope, that the machine and I have a understanding of the mind..We usually do not get along to good :roll:

    I remember that feeling! I had to train mine and talk nice to her...gave her a treat now and then, but more spankings than treats! lol! I admire your hand sewing tho, haven't braved that yet, thought about hand quilting a small project to see if I like it, good luck! This is an awesome place for ideas and help!

    LOL I will have to give that a try...She is a good machine its the owner that makes her do strange things :-D Like the material to go one way and her hand to go the other

    Mine does that too sometimes. And I've been sewing all my life. Makes you wonder sometimes...like if maybe the things that go bump in the night might not be at it again!!!
