I do think hand quilting is going by the wayside. I hand quilt and think hand quilting is the only way to go. I am lucky enough to belong to a quilt guild that has many hand quilters. But, also, many of our members have a professional quilter machine quilt theirs. Each year we prepare a raffle quilt, and it is always hand quilted. So many guilds of today offer raffle quilts that have been machine quilted. When visiting quilt shows I see that many displayed quilts have been machine quilted. I think the hand quilted quilts are becoming fewer and fewer at the shows. Sad!
