Default Mixing Hand and Machine Piecing

Have any of you ever mixed hand and machine quilting in one quilt top? I have started hand-piecing a double bed quilt, and will continue making the blocks that way. However, when I get to the border, would it be OK to machine quilt that? The border will be made with 2.5" blocks sewn together around the quilt. I forgot the exact number, but somewhere around 200-250 of them. There will be a solid border, too. I have never mixed the two methods and just wonder if anyone else has. Don't want the quilt police to come after me!
