Well, thank you - I think. :mrgreen:

The videos and the past discussions about this method of hand quilting looked just too darn intriguing to resist.

So, I bought a Barnett Laptop hoop and some thimbles and the Aunt Becky and the largest hand quilting needles I could find, which still appear to be microscopic. How do you even HOLD a needle this teeny, much less SEW with them???

Since I haven't hand quilted anything in a very long time, I have no ingrained habits to overcome and maybe I'll get the hang of this. If I can be half as fast as this gal, I will be happy, happy, HAPPY!
