Tracey, would you tell us what they advise you to do for hand piecing? I started off that way 'cuz that's how my mom chose to do it then I did. I like that I do not need to keep the sewing machine out too, but realized later that my stitches were long. . .

With the hand piecing, really there is no right or wrong. It doesn't matter if your stitches are big. My stitches aren't exactly small, but they are OK. I do however have a long history of doing cross stitches, so can sort of control my stitches, but you do get better as you go along.

As long as your pieces stay together and look OK, it should be alright. Is that sort of what you wanted to know?

Yes, thank you. I'm just worried it will be easier for them to come apart... but I guess that is what the quilting will help with!
