    Oh, I'm so happy. My DD has taken an old quilt top that I inherited from my grandmother and is quilting it!!! Here are the pics that she has sent me so far. She really didn't want me to post them, because she thought that we wouldn't think they were very good.

    I think they look great!!! And it is so wonderful that this old quilt top didn't get discarded and will be turned into a useful quilt.

    Yeah, I taught her that thimblelady's method from the start, and she is really good at it. Better than I am, as a matter of fact. Her stitches are more consistent than mine are.

    Well, she is very, very good at the hand quilting, regardless of what method she uses!! You have a right to be PROUD!!

    Congrats on having your daughter take this quilt top and keep it alive by adding her personal touch. Beautiful hand-quilting...so glad you shared.
