Hand quilting without a frame
#21
I decided to hand quilt my first quilt (which is not finished yet) I am an avid cross stitcher, and have never used a hoop for that and found it too difficult/ackward incorporating a hoop or frame to quilt. I gave up early on and find I am more comfortable with it in my lap and I am quite happy with the way its turning out so far.
Thanks so much everyone for encouraging me to continue ( I was hesitant not using a hoop) but I am glad I don't need to worry now!

As long as you baste it well, it will work out great. And, with winter approaching, holding that quilt on your lap while you quilt, is quite cozy! I like to save my hand quilting jobs for cooler weather. :)
