I love playing with fabric and piecing, but am seriously hopeless at the quilting part of it. If I do it by hand, it takes forever and may never get done. If I do it by machine, it's a losing fight...
So, now I piece to my heart's content and send the tops to be finished either by hand (when I have the budget!) or by longarm.
The results are so beautiful and it helps other people make a living from their skills. Skills I just do not have.
It's a win-win situation
