    If you hand quilted that you are truly amazing at it. I'm not saying you are not honest, it's just so perfect it really looks like machine quilting.
    Well, I'm flattered. Honestly, hand-stitched. If you could see the back, your doubts would melt away, I'm sure.

    Your stitches are truely amazing. I'm hand quilting a flannel wilderness quilt with embroidery floss and all I can say is, it's supposed to look rustic! I do not use a hoop or a frame but I do use a special thimble that makes the rocking stitch easier to do. Does living with 4 cats make me a cat rancher? I'm more like "the help."
