I machine sew my quilts including the bindings. Sometimes I tie a large quilt but IF it is quilted, it is done on the machine. I was taught to sew neatly but I don't enjoy it so I don't do it. Everyone should do what they enjoy as it is a hobby......

I hand quilt, even the big quilts. I love revisiting the fabrics along the way and when the quilt almost takes on a landscape of sorts, for lack of a better descriptionl. Love the way the finished quilts drape also. Also find it relaxing.

I machine piece and hand quilt. I think the hand quilting makes it so special but the time involved is astronomical as well. I am pretty new at quilting and may try having one machine quilted just because of the time element.
