I think both machine and hand quilting are skills to be learned and each has its place.
But my grand made her first quilt at 12 yo and said she has no desire to learn by hand lol!!!!!!
Thank you. Machine quilting was just getting talked about back then but I truly did live in a quilting blight area. Our churches all did quilts which were tied to save time and donated to various charities in need but that was about it and of course they used all kinds of old clothing to make them.
