Then And Now
When I started hand quilting, a lot of my stitches were almost 1/4 inch long, and very uneven. The blue one is from about 2003. The tan one is a lap quilt that I am just finishing. It sure pays to keep trying.

I had my first quilt in a huge hand quilting frame in my living room about 30 years ago. My mother-in-law brought a friend of hers to my house for a birthday party for one of the kids - both old ladies were hand quilters. The other lady said very loudly when she saw my stitches - "Well, at least you won't get your toe nails caught in your stitches!". Guess that was a compliment????? LOL
