I've seen this as the new "fad" for hand quilting. Personally, I haven't had any issues with the way my great-grandmother taught me - if it's all for the sake of moving body parts preservation - might as well give that one up. We've moved our body parts since birth - they will all have issues as the body ages. Hand quilting has been the same for so very long, using a new tool under the quilt is just another challenge in making a simple quilting technique, complicated.

Sleepy Hollow, thank you for that information. Yay! I am not doing it wrong. I do like my stitches. And I will continue my method with Aunt Becky as it does help me. I know by the time this little baby quilt is done, I will be much better. I am making it so the grand daughters can use it during nap time when we have our days together Thank you all for you response and the help. You all have helped me very much.

I want one of these tools. I saw the video years ago but have not been able to find one. I think it takes lots of practice, lots and lots of practice. Don't give up.

A lot of the online quilt shops have them. I was just on Connecting Threads, and they have one for $4.
