Let's try this again!! I have arthritis so my hand quiltng is so slow
Attachment 637440 but I enjoy hand quilting. I tried big stitch for the first time on the borders. I decided I like big stitch! I want to applique a small out border of flowers. |
That is beautiful. I'm glad you were able to post a picture.
Janey - Neat people never make the exciting discoveries I do. |
That's just lovely! So much time and effort went into your hand quilting and it's so detailed and even. I'm glad you were finally able to share a picture! I'd hate to have missed it. :-)
|
Thank you!! It is frustrating to post pics on this forum. I love to see everyones quilts, so I'll keep trying, lol!
|
I love it - doing a whole cloth quilt is on my bucket list.
|
Wow, what a stunning quilt, excellent workmanship.
|
Oh, my land! The hours and dedication that took. It is beautiful.
Yes, big stitch is fun and a whole different mind set than what most quilters have developed. Thank you for sharing your work with us. That is a treasure, for sure. |
Your quilt is beautiful. You should be proud of your work.
|
Oh my, those are a lot of stitches and it sounds like you certainly have the determination to get it quilted. Beautiful!
|
What a gorgeous piece of work. Never in a million years would I have the persistence or talent to do what you do.
|
Thank you everyone for your kind replies. I am also a knitter & I crochet. Getting older & arthiritis has slowed me down, but I'm still enjoying myself. I love looking at everyone's gorgeous quilts
|
Beautiful.
|
Oh my. You do some amazing hand work. I’m glad you were able
to post a picture |
That is very good looking. Nice work.
|
That's spectacular!!! Glad you were able to post a pic.
|
This is magnificent! Your stitching is perfect. And you accomplished this with Arthritis! How proud you must be.
|
Thank you everyone!! I am so appreciative to have a creative outlet during stressful times. I find hand work relaxing much more than my sewing machine.
|
Oh my! What a wonderful example of hand quilting! You are extremely talented with your quilting skills! I only dream about making a quilt like this, but it'll be a long time before I have the skill to do so.

I started out as a hand quilter but I have so many people I want to make quilts for (mostly family members) that I decided to learn how to machine quilt. I love to knit at night while watching movies. |
Just beautiful! I'm in awe of your hand work!
|
Beautiful! I've always wanted to do a wholecloth quilt too. Yours is just amazing.
|
A long time ago I use to hand quilt. I just machine quilt now for speed. I donate quilts to foster kids in my county.
Hands can't do sewing anymore. |
Wow! Your quilt is gorgeous! I am inspired!
|
Wow! Amazing quilting.

Cute to the extreme! I love it. I cannot hand quilt anymore. Not that I ever could as well as you can. It tears up my wrists so bad, I could cry.
|
Thank you everyone for your kind posts. My first quilt was a wholecloth. I just enjoy hand work, but I have to limit my time. Getting old isn't for the faint of heart, lol!!
|
A great job is done, But its long-term work result. If you do this type of hand quilting, You can't be able to do much more quilt in a limited time. But I have a curiosity, how much time do you take to do this?
|
Wow! That is gorgeous. So glad you were able to get the picture to post.
