    A quilting friend mentioned this method as I was having probs with ordinary hand quilting, I Googled n saw this: http://sewprimitive.blogspot.com/2007/01/big-stitch-examples.html and couldn't resist so I made this over the weekend.



    The quilting only took a couple of hours :shock: the PP took a day n half :mrgreen:

    I like big stitch quilting, as I can keep the stitches more evenly spaced. Adds nice texture too.
