Thumbs Up for you! :thumbup: :thumbup: I agree with you, and I hope hand quilting never stops. More power to those who hand quilts. I admire you, the time consuming, the sore fingers, the patience, the outstanding love, the tired eyes, the stiff shoulders, the aching back, the heart felt warmth and most of all the "Skill" in general. Those quilts should be worth thousands of dollars. I said all of this because, I tried handquilting and if that was the only way to quilt, I would do it. I'm a longarmer now, but I greatly admire your skillful work. Thanks for sharing your beautiful, greatly appreciated work. Hats Off to You!!!!
