Default My next hand quilting top/quilt

Pattern is called "Springfield" from Judy Martins book--Ultimate book of quilt block patterns. I have a quilt 99% hand quilted. Working on the very outer edge. I started hand quilting this quilt March sometime. I will probably have it hand quilt by the end of Sept. I usually quilt in the morning a 1/2 hr. While the wife is getting ready for work. Then of a evening 4-5 hr's. Roughly guessing with quilt's I hand quilt. Take's me 7-8 months/roughly for a queen size. Take care everyone. Don-isewman The 4th picture is the quilt, I'm working on the outside border.[ATTACH=CONFIG]579140[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]579141[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]579142[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]579143[/ATTACH]

Oh my gosh, Don, they are gorgeous!!! I also love hand quilting. It seems that I do more of it in the winter. It's very relaxing for me.
I have many of Judy Martin's books and I am just starting a new one of hers.
You're doing a wonderful job!!
Keep sharing

One question- do you use a thimble and if so which kind?
The only one that works for me is the leather one.
