Any other hand quilters out there?
#14
I've only machine pieced and quilted for a long time, but this year I've started piecing by hand again for exactly the reason you said - I can do it anytime, anywhere! I'm really loving it - I forgot how much. Only one of my current projects is being done by hand, but I have a feeling there are many more to come!

I only hand quilt or tie, prefer to hand quilt though. I did send one out to be LAQ because 1) I called it an expierement, not crazy about it, cut too wide 2 definately knew I would never do anything with it 30 maybe, just maybe I might like it. If not, it will be done and I can give it away so I never have to see it again. LOL!!

I don't usually hand piece, but I do like to hand quilt some things. I'm doing a Grandmothers Flower Garden entirely by hand, and that will be hand quilted. I'm glad there are still some people that do hand quilting.

i do both, i always have a hand project going, i have 'down-time' at work so sit and sew. i love the precision of hand piecing and it gives me lots of opportunity to experiment and try new techniques. i find it amazing how much i can get done, 10 minutes here, 20 minutes there :thumbup:
my sewing machine piecing is more...utility sewing...just getting it done.
