    handquilting does slow you down a bit. I wish I wasn't so afraid of machine quilting. I have too many ideas and not enough time...hehe

    Lynette,
    I have tried machine quilting but my machine isn't the greatest so it only does a walking foot .. no free motion quilting. Maybe some day ...
    The christmas quilt will probably just get a thicker thread done with a bigger stitch. ( Utility Quilting)
    Oh and if I opened the closet full of ideas.. .... I would be in trouble too! :D

    I love all 3 of your quilts! Good for your for digging them out and finishing them! I agree with you on the hand quilting--takes forever, but so worth the time! Can't wait to see your quilts all finished!
