Hello my name is tinkerfeet and I have just started to quilt again. I started with my grandmother when I was about 6 years old and fell in love with fabric. I am now 56 years old. I stopped a few years ago but now I can't wait to get going again. I hand piece and hand quilt my quilts. Do people do that still or is everyone using machines? Is that something I need to learn and get into? I would love any and all advice.

Of course you can still do it by hand and the look is fabulous! I love it. Welcome from Alaska!

Hi. I started to hand piece a quilt, but never finished. I like to hand quilt. I'm not that good but I enjoy the process. I am trying to learn to machine quilt, scary but fun.
