i'm a hand quilter - machine piecer if at all possible and probably always will be.
But, i just finished piecing a quilt that my grandmother cut out(she died in 1945) - diamond shapes and i just "knew" i was going to have to square up those diamonds!
I didn't! And they were just as square as the others i cut out using my rotary cutter! It was also neat to see the pencil lines on the pieces.
BTW - I also feel quilt shows need to have separate categories. I am saddened that i don't see more hand quilted quilts. Hmmm - maybe i'll enter one???
