Thank you. I agree an all over meander is not a good choice for a hand quilter. SID, I prefer to echo right next to the ditch. For ideas for handquilting, I think you would benefit from the book The Essential Quilter. It is an indespensible addition to any handquilter's library. http://www.amazon.com/Essential-Quil...8560106&sr=1-1
