Thanks to all of you who took time to give your opinion. Seems the feeling here is that it IS a hand-made quilt. It will be described as a hand-made quilt, with no mention of any hand quilting. I feel better about saying so now. This is something that has bothered me for a while.

I would call it hand made. Home made has a lower class connotation... Like it is worth less because it was just made at home.

It is handmade...not just "hand" quilted. Made with a sewing machine is still hand made.

I would say HOME made for the fliers. I understand what you're saying but to clarify for others so they don't think "you" tried to mislead them by the word hand I would put home.

It is definitely 'hand made' whether its machine or hand quilted on the label I always put whether it is hand or machined pieced and the same with the quilting

Of course it is hand made. Made by your hands not at a factory. I count any thing some one makes at home as hand made. Hand made home made, I believe are the same. Put what ever makes you feel good. It was so nice of you to go to all of that work making something I do not think anyone will object what ever you choose to put. After all it is the thought that counts.

Yes, it is hand made. There might have been a time when "hand made" meant not machine made, but that is long past. Hand made in my opinion means made by your hands as opposed to being commercially made.

How about.... Hand made on machine

Hand made = not purchased at the local Wal Mart : )

So yours is hand made in my opinion

I think I would ask them to use the words, "An original made by _______ ______.
