I love to hand quilt. I am working on a quilt right now for my granddaughter. I am using tricot (the stuff that slips are made from). I remember my little brother having a trioct quilt. They are very nice. I am backing with a piece of poly-cotton blend.
I want to do one for my friend as well. I have been teaching myself machine quilting, but when we go on vacation, I want to have something to do in the RV as we are driving. I have also taught myself handpiecing as well.
I don't get to work on it as much as I would like, as I crochet also, but it sure is fun.
There is one site I like for the tricot quilts, as they are wholecloth quilts and that is mandldesigns.com. They are located in Oregon.
