There is a new virtual section with posts about hand quilting that PatriceJ was nice enough to set up for us.
As new hand-quilting topics come up, I will try to add them to the virtual section. It would help if when you start a new topic, you give it a title that reflects the content - for example, "Hand Quilting Batting Question" instead of "Hand quilting question" or, even worse "Does anyone know..." or things along that line. Descriptive titles help make a topic more "searchable" and also help the user decide which topic will best help them with a particular question. Would you rather chose from fifteen topics labeled "hand quilting" or three topics that specify that they deal with batting for hand quilting? |
thanks!!

Oh, just in case there are some who don't know how to find the virtual sections:
Click on "Home" at the top of the page, scroll to the bottom and click on "User-Defined Topic Lists", and then on that page scroll down (they are arranged alphabetically) until you reach "Hand Quilting". |
I just added a link for us but it is not letting me add to the virtual section for us

Thank you, Butterflyblue and PatriceJ! I have just subscribed the section.

Wonderful news!
When I joined the board a year ago I was shocked at how little was mentioned about hand quilting and that's all I did until now. I thought it had fallen by the wayside and that made me sad. So glad to know there's interest. Thanks so much Butterflyblue and Patrice!!!!!! :D:D |

Oh that's good! I was formerly with a group of hand quilting only quilters and I haven't been to any shows lately. I didn't realize all the MQ'ing going on :D
This year I'm giving it a go. But I doubt I'll ever give up HQ b/c it's so relaxing! Thanks :) |
thanks so much for setting this up. Hand quilting is something I really would like to learn, hope I can find lots of pointers here. One thing I have learned since joining is the ladder stitch which someone was kind enough to explain. I used on my 2nd quilt and what a huge difference that made to my binding, I'm a pretty lousy hand sewer..., so I'm real excited about this new section.
