    Very nice. As far as doing hand quilting or machine...pick the one you want to try first. Since you have sewn for many years, you should not have any problem handling the quilt in the machine. You may want to try handquilting to see if you like it. I hand quilted my first quilt and really enjoyed it. Something about the slow and relaxing pace is a joy to me.
