Oh my gosh!!! I would never get any quilts done if I hand quilted!!! but I love the look of it.

8 quilts in 8 months... by hand???? :shock: Do you eat, sleep, or anything else... Ever???
My goodness!! That is a pretty quilt by the way. |
Thanks for the compliments. You would be surprised how fast it gos if you can stay with it. I don't have a lot of other things to do. Live in a small apartment, live alone, lost my pet last year, and am disabled. I just finished quilting a 110 x110 king size for son and dil. I ususally do only plain quilting, just stitch in theditch. Would like to get into more intricate patterns but most of mine so far have been strip quilting or log cabin quilts. they go pretty fast. I love the serenety of sitting and quilting andleting myh mind wander to the many blessings in my life. I am so happy that I was literally pushed into this by my dil when I had knee replacement surgery in November. She went out and bought all the stuff I needed and said "go to it mom" and i did and haven't stopped since. I love it. Have memories of my grannie cutting, hand piecing and then quilting. By the way I am 65 years old, 3 sons, grandchilren and 1 great grand child.. Thanks again Jane Sisk
