    Default My first handquilting project

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]352332[/ATTACH]

    Had too much fun deciding on the "right" colors for the blocks.
    This was my first attempt at hand quilting.
    Gave up on the idea of small stitches and tried for consistant.

    Really cool! Just learned how to hand quilt at a retreat this week. Don't know how much I will do but my stitches are consistent but big.

    love the colours and your quilting looks great - consistent size is brilliant, you will probably find after a while that your stitches will get smaller, keep going with the handquilting x
