i love to hand quilt. very theraputic. i made my DGD an 8 pointed star quilt when she was a baby. now im making her one with hex. the fabric is from the 70's and she liked it so i said id make it for her for xmas. also have two others going. that way i dont get burned out. can take it with me where ever i go. very relaxing and easier to take out a stitch when needed. :-D
