Hey! Thanks for sharing! You are bound to be encouraging others. :-)
By hand! I hope you used strong thread. :-) I love to see guys quilting. With ready-made clothes, there aren't so many professional tailors around anymore. It's wonderful to see the creativity from men in the sewing field too. I hope you keep up your hobby. You will be amazed what you can do with a machine, if you want to try that too.
