Yes, I only do hand quilting. Sometimes I use thread with the same color than the fabric, but somestimes I use contrasting colors. For this quilt in a brown I used a rust and a golden thread - unfortunately it does not show so well on the pictures. I will try to do another one where you can see it later.

No, this wasn't preprinted. I used several stencils and some freehand quilting. It's wonderful to read that you also love that kind of quilting!
