Your hand quilting is gorgeous and a true art form, your quilts are stunning. I would hand quilt if my hands weren't in such bad shape. Two surgeries, more to come, arthritis in my fingers and wrist problems. If my hands didn't hurt so much I would be doing hand quilting as well. Hand sewing is so relaxing, helps to relax me and relieves stress. I'm happy to be able to machine piece let alone do all the other stuff. Still having fun and can't complain. There is always someone who has it worse.
