It is hand work, so you will never really get fast at it. Part of the joy of hand quilting is enjoying the process. I don't do it often, but when I do, love to listen to relaxing music. Can really get into the rhythm of the stitches.

You are so right about music though. I'd love to find time to do more embroidery, (too skeered to hand quilt big projects...fibro and all that stiff stuff), but what a joy it is to just sit with a piece, some thread and a needle...hot-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha!!!!
