I'm new to quilting, only a little over a year, but I love to hand quilt. I'm not great at either hand or machine quilting but the hand quilting seems to be more relaxing to me. The quilt in my avatar is one of the first quilts I made in an intro to piecing class that I took last spring and I hand quilted it. I'm am now hand quilting a king sized log cabin quilt that I am making for a friend as a wedding gift.
I was looking at a Jinny Beyer CD that teaches you to hand piece and I think I'm going to order it just to try something different. It is so amazing that the quilts made in the 1800 were hand pieced and hand quilted and they were just beautiful
