I always have one or two quilting projects ongoing that are entirely done by hand sewing. They make great projects for doing in the truck as we are traveling to go camping, for sitting around the campfire or the camper, or for sitting at the airport and on the plane.
I also feel that these special quilts that are all done by hand are going to be the quilts that are more valued by my descendants. (Oh look at this one! Great-great grandma made this one ALL by hand! No machine sewing on this one!)
I also have taken my sewing machine in the camper with me at times, if there is something that I am trying to get done for a deadline!
Have fun!
