Don't sweat it. There is a horse's behind born every minute. I envy anyone that can hand sew a whole quilt. I had carpal tunnel in both hands so I can't do much of it. My dear little grandmother quilted by hand. She died when I was a year old so she never got to teach me quilting but I inherited all her talents. She did beautiful little stitches. I have some of her blocks that were stitched by hand. You want to hear something funny. I took 4 big bags of material that I knew I would never use to a group of church ladies that meet once a month to sew for missions. One of the ladies acted like I spit on the floor when I told her I only machine quilted. She didn't treat me very nice. Oh well, I can live with it. :?
