Absolutely beautiful work - unbelievably tiny neat stitches. You have lots of patience - and skill!

I love to hand quilt, but I have a long way to go, to get to where you are. Is your stippling done in straight lines or curves? Any help you give those of us learning, it would be appreciated! Thanks.

It is done in straight lines. When you look at the picture the lines go vertically.

[quote=Borntohandquilt... ...I try to do my best to keep this old tradition alive. In Germany we almost don't have a quilting tradition and many people still don't know what a quilt is! [/quote]

It is interesting to me that people in Germany don't know what a quilt is. How did you learn? You do such beautiful work. I could only hand quilt if we just had to go through one layer of fabrci... but then, that wouldn't be a quilt, would it? LOL

:D

Lots of stitching, wonderful job. How big is the project. I have a frame, did a queen once, but wasn't pleased with stitches, may try again this summer up at the cottage, on an easy pattern. Practice makes perfect they say.
