many craft person

I do both - I recently got a quilt my aunt had completed except about 5 blocks of putting it together - It a flower garden quilt - to keep it "authentic" like the old quilts once I get it completed I'll quilt it by hand - that may very well take the rest of the year. Wait, this is almost September make that next year.lol

I am not comfortable on a machine although I am trying
so up until now everything i have done is by hand pimple pillows, potholder, and all regular sewing

I have had my machine for over 6 years and before I decided to buckle down and really try and use it last month I could count how many time I have used it

I love hand sewing it is so relaxing glad to know I am not alone

Don't feel too bad - I'm not that fast either. I just try to focus on getting the stitches even.

yes, I placed white cotton in my large floor quilting frame and her friends in the neighborhood came and helped her sew them on, then I sewed 6" eyelet around the out side. She passed away before getting to enjoy it, so It means a lot to me.
