Hi Caroline,
I've just started hand quilting and was having a terrible time making my stitches small enough. Went to a quilting class and the instructor told me to quilt "in the shadow" which is 1/4 inch from the seam and comes just below the seams that have been pressed to the side. Works great for me. You might want to try it.
