Wow, nice job. I did a lot of hand embroidery back in the 70s, but never dared to hand quilt a quilt... I'm afraid I'd lose interest and the quilt top would sit there waiting for my return. There are some awesome hand quilters on this board so you should fit in nicely. Oh, and welcome to the board from northern New Hampshire.

You have done an amazing job. Everything looks so perfect and to have hand done it...I'm speechless! Wonderful job. Check out some of your LQS and see if any have classes coming up for hand quilting. I'd take the quilt top with me when you go. Impress them with your first quilt top!

I am sending a pic of the quilt I hope. My next task is trying to learn how to hand quilt. So far every stitch has been done by hand and I am really wanting to keep it that way until it is finished. I started this quilt in 2009. I am hoping to have it finished by 2011.
