I think I will give it a try. I tried hand quilting but was disappointed that my stitches were too big. Thanks for sharing this.

I used Perle #8 Crochet Cotton Embroidery Thread there are some terrific buys on Ebay with an ordinary quilt needle, size 9 I think.

Thank you love the look ! Nice change !

Great job on your long stitches and they are very straight too. :)

Great piece of work!! Well done with the quilting!

I love big stitch quilting. Nice job

Lovely, will have to try it.

Here's another link for big stitching that I found.

I love to do the big stitch as it is so much faster! And I think it looks good, too. Yours looks great btw.

When I was a young'un, my grandmother called stitches like that 'toenail catchers'. LOL! Times do change!

I love it! You did a beautiful job! Keep at it & you will master handquilting.
