Well done, happy looking quilt. Your hand quilting is wonderful. I too machine piece and mostly hand quilt (in my lap versus a frame). I think something can be said about how nice a handquilted article drapes. Keep up the great work.

You did a lovely job on this quilt. Love the wrinkled look (that what I call it) It will surely be loved. Wish I could hand quilt, but thumbs start throbbing if I hand sew too long. Yours sure is nice.

I agree with this opinion! You did a fabulous job on this. I love to hand quilt in my lap also. I just concentrate on getting the stitches to look the same as each other from the front. I have decided to not care about the backs so much, as long as I don't get any pleats, and I don't when I spray baste. Also, I am content to take just one stitch at a time! I have accepted that handquilting over seams is a bad idea, and generally keep my lines within a piece. I also sometimes have both handquilting and machine quilting in the same little quilt -- they are mine and I make the rules!
