I have to say --- you did an EXCELLENT job! My first and last time hand quilting looked like something a neanderthal would sew with a porcupine quill and reeds!!!! :mrgreen:

Well, I have hand quilted and I can tell you you are very good at it. It really looks perfect. that rocking comes with practice. You have to keep a hand under the quilt as you go to help you rock the needle.

First attempt? No way. I couldn't dream of having such perfectly spaced and straight stitches! This is beautiful! I can't wait to see what you do when you "more experienced". ;)

Fantastic! Nice even stitches and straight stitching - following the pattern or the straight lines. If this was a class project I think you should get an A+ for the class.
