Hello! I love hand piecing. I've always spent my evenings with some sort of project, and now I'm attempting to learn how to hand piece quilts. I know almost nothing on how to go about it.

I would love any tips or advice or just to hear from someone who likes to hand piece as well.

If you don't mind, I'll start with one question. I see a lot of machine-made quilts that are done with rotary cutting and strip piecing (good grief, I hope I'm using the right terms). Is that the way a person would make a hand pieced quilt? I saw a quilt made with half triangles, but didn't know which was the proper way to make it. I've done a little machine work in the past so I know the technique, but my machine decided to bite the dust. I tried hand piecing and discovered I prefer it since it does take longer. (I'm a bit of a slowpoke) I'd like to do it correctly, so I thought I'd ask.

Thanks for the input!
