Thanks trupeach. I was wondering how minkee handled when hand quilted. I love the feel but have never worked with it. I'll admit I'm a bit scared. I've heard horror stories of slippage, of horrid puckers and other problems when machine quilted. Yet, I love the feel. I can't get away from that. I love to hand quilt so I will definitely have to give this a try. I'm thinking I should practice on a lap quilt for me before I try to make something for someone else. :lol:
