I hate to ask but is this part of the quilting art dying out?
How many are still out there doing this amazing part of the quilting art?
How long before you had confidence in your skills?
Needle-turn applique is alive and well! The time investment is significant but well worth it and you have to enjoy hand sewing. With all the fancy machines out there. I can see why people are more inclined to see beautiful results more quickly.
As for confidence in your skills: needle turn sometimes makes me want to rip my hair out by the roots!! It makes me want to scream!! It tries my patience and builds my character!! ( and I love to do it)Have a great day.
