Your work is amazing... wish I had the time to hand quilt, but... I can't hand sew. Heck, I even put my bindings on by machine because of it. My mother hand quilted everything.... she had the patience of a Saint... Once I get to the quilting part... I have to move on to other things. Heck it would take me 20 years to get done just what you have pictured here if I hand quilted and it would look terrible.
I applaud all the hand quilters out there.... I appreciate all the work that goes into it. For me...I'd spend an enormous amount of time on that project and it would look like #@*$ ... well.... you know what I was going to say.
