I took a hand quilting class at my LQS in late 2009 when I was taking all my new learning to quilt classes and hand quilted the quilt that is in my avatar, then I hand quilted a 106x106 log cabin for a friend as a wedding gift that I gave her in June of this year and right now I have a 70x93 quilt on my frame that I am hand quilting. I have tried machine quilting without much success (everyone tells me just to keep practicing, that it will get better) but I find hand quilting a lot more relaxing.
