    I hand quilt and I machine quilt. It just depends on the project-who it's for and how it will be used. All of my charity quilts and the kid quilts are machine quilted. I enjoy the relaxation of hand quilting, though.

    I hand quilted one quilt. I knew that it's someting I didn't enjoy but forced myself to finish it. As hand quilting has always been done in my family I had to give it a try. I tried machine quilting on my DSM. Then I bought a Tin Lizzie, for me it's the only way I enjoy quilting.

    Thank goodness your all at this craft! I went to the Arizona Quilter's Guild, quilt show in Mesa and there were so few hand quilted quilts it was disappointing.

    Thanks sewmerry....I have two daughters and made everything from their layettes to their wedding gowns and lots for grandchildren and now greats. BUT this quilting is proving to be much different than any of that. I can't wait to get the top done so I can get to the hand quilting. I'm sure that is going to be another learning curve

    Hand quilting was how I learned 30 years ago...started with tied quilts then graduated to hand quilting on a frame. Still do it and love it
    I have thought about learning to FMQ but am reluctant too!!!

    I do both hand quilting and machine quilting depending on the project. I just finished one hand quilted one and just have to put the border on it. I am almost done with another hand quilt and was just thinking I should be working on gettting my next one set up.
