Hand quilting novice
I tried the search but couldn't find a thread about hand quilting. After finding out how very expensive it is to have a quilt machine quilted I have started trying to teach myself hand quilting. I am starting on a queen size but am only doing around the appliqués and each square, (you can't really see the quilting)
so far this is exasperating!!! I have manage to finally make my stitches fairly small, now working on making them evenly spaced and the same size.. I need to find a thimble that works for me, I have tried three so far. I am having some trouble understanding how to END a thread and I am worried about the whole thing falling apart down the road. Wow! I have a great appreciation for all of you who have mastered this!!
