    Looks like you are a natural! Hand quilting is something I would like to try, too. Thank you for encouraging me :).

    I think mine are pretty big as well. They tend to be about 6 per inch.

    I wish I could remember the site where I got the little kit that I am working on from... I will see if I can figure that out and get that information on the topic. It really did seem to help me get started.

    You've done a great job with the quilting and making the rest of the quilt also. Keep up the good work and show us when it is all finished.
