Thank you all for you nice comments - it really encourages me. I'm very, very thankful that my hands are still willing to do that wonderful craft of handquilting.

I use a John James betweens #11 and Coats Hand Quilting thread (today I prefer the YLI brand). I don't use a thimble, just needle and thread!
