I am a hand quilter, always have been. I keep thinking I ought to learn to machine quilt, simply for the production boost it would afford me, but I really don't enjoy time spent at my sewing machine. I machine piece for the most part, it's efficient, but I don't really like it.
But I truly LIKE hand quilting. It's relaxing. The repetitive hand movements free the mind to dream, plan, or worry, whichever is appropriate for the day. I go in my room almost every night and spend several hours hand quilting. When something comes up that I cannot, my day does not feel complete.
