even lots of the famous quilters combine both-
it is your project- do it the way you want to

What I was thinking about doing was machine quilting - pretty much straight lines with slight curves - the tracks and around the cars, and hand quilting the details on the rest of the quilt that I want to highlight.

I suspect it will be just fine, just wondered if anyone else had ever done this.

Works for me!
