Default landscape quilts

I have been thinking of trying a landscape quilt. I do most things by hand. I hand applique and hand quilt. The only thing I do by machine is piecing. Do you think it is possible to do a landscape quilt by hand.

Do check out quilt books on landscape quilts...there are different types. It is not impossible to do such a quilt by hand but do consider using decorative stitches on your sewing machine. I have done a few landscape quilts on my own and the decorative stitches sure come in handy.

I think you can make a lovely landscape quilt by hand. A scene done in needle turn appliqué would be awesome but a lot of work. If you enjoy appliqué, go for it!
