Hi everyone,
I'm Beverly from Tx. My mother n law and Aunt did quilting the old fashioned way with the quilting frame that hangs from the ceiling, so hubby built me a frame too. I have made four quilt tops and now need to learn to finish them. I have just been teaching myself but I have a friend who has done quilts for years and will help when she can as we live about 45 miles apart. I'm so frustrated but really love quilting. I'll be asking a lot of questions so bear with me!

Welcome and your husband is a keeper. I hope you love hand quilting. I do but it takes practice.

Glad you have some local support too. A second pair of eyes is always helpful. But the board members a angels and help out all the time.

Hello and Welcome to the board :D:D:D
There are many handquilting videos on YouTube, they may be helpful to you.

Welcome. What I have found on the board is if they don't know the answer to your question there is always someone that knows where you can go to find it. A lot of helpful people here. :c)

Welcome from Indiana.
I'm sorry you feel so bad about quilting - but you've come to the right place. We love to answer questions! Quilting is a lot of learning and practice, practice, practice!

For myself I say I'm "nervous" to try new parts of the 'quilting' process.
At first it was different 'techniques' for making blocks correctly...over that! :) I love making blocks now!
Then it was matching seams correctly when putting tops together...over that! :) You should see the tops I put together so far.
Then it was 'birth' a quilt and then stitch in a ditch...one baby quilt done and given as a gift - 2 more to go and I'll be ...over that! :)

The next thing I feel 'nervous' to do is
Layer, pin, quilt and then Bind a LARGER quilt

Hi and welcome.

Welcome from North central PA. I understand the frustration as I am still learning some of the ins and outs of quilting also,although I am not as brave as you are. I machine quilt. Too little time, so many quilts on my "to do" list.

So glad you found us. We love Pics!

Hello from Western Oregon! The big thing about hand quilting is that it is slower. You need to be able to take a few hours at a time to sit at the frame. It can be very relaxing, and is especially nice when you have someone helping you.
