That is absolutely cheerful and lovely! I love it, I also do not really care for tied quilts, but that is my choice.

If you get suggestions from people like your SIL and don't want to do it their way, just smile shake your head like you are agreeing then do what YOU want to do.

Your mom is going to just love it!

Thank you again everyone for the encouragment! After looking over the prices on the Amish quilting site earlier today, I think I'll keep right on hand quilting! Who knows....maybe I'll get done nursing and just start quilting all day :) After a lot more practice of course!

I think it's very cute and I know your mom will love it. If you are happy with it, that's all that matters. It just shows your style and that's a good thing.

It's really pretty. I guess your sister in law doesn't value hand quilting but most of us do and yours is very nice. Your Mom will be pleased.

[quote=Lori L]I posted the following pictures under the main section in a discussion about my sister in law hurting my feelings. I had showed her my hand quilting project I was doing for my Mom and she suggested "it'd been easier if you'd "tied it off" and proceeded to give a long lecture/instructional on how to perform this technique. Anyhow...here are some pictures of my project. All I have left to do is complete the binding and I'll have the tablerunner ready for Mom's birthday next week![/quott

this is so good and incredibly neat-------ignore your SIL either ignorant or jealous?
