The best part about this thread on handquilting is that it shows that all quilters truly love quilting.I haven't been on here that long,but no one competes with each other or is rude to each other. There's nothing but encouragement,advice,and good thoughts toward one another.I think quilt making is one of the friendliest and most helpful crafts of any.

Yesterday I put a quilt in my frames and will begin quilting it today. I think it is hard for some people to spend that much time on one thing, especially if you have a huge stash waiting. It is a hurry up world.

I have MS and my neurologist told me that my handquilting was helping to keep the muscles in my arms and hands from drawing up. So I guess my love of handquilting is good for my health as well as my heart.
