Absolutely, but don't think of it as a way to learn hand quilting, it's a whole differnt process...you won't learn the "rocking stitch" this way..it's a simple runnning stitch!

Looks great. I am going to try the big stitches as I can't get the hang of those small stitches. Start big and maybe it will improve the small

The thread you use for the stitches is so profound, what type/kind of thread do you use? I love the look of the stitch and the way it enhances. Thank you and good thoughts
