Thanks. Mine is not perfect. I don't try for perfection. I like the hand made look. My rows aren't perfect. I don't measure. I just enjoy myself. Practice makes it get better each time.

Thank you for displaying your work. It is truly beautiful and you are right it is becoming a lost art. Your work is truly beautiful you should enter it in some of the shows you go to I am sure they would win.

I'm a hand quilter but not on the scale you are. Stunning work both in your quilts and the quilting. Thanks for sharing.

Thank goodness someone feels the same way about hand quilting as I do. However, my stitching is not this detailed. I just feel that it is really hand made if you quilt by hand. Your work is just beautiful.

I'm attempting to send pictures of two of my first attempts at hand quilting. the first is a coloring book carosels that I painted with fabric paints then designed the center star and hand quilted it. Not professional but I was so proud of it. A gift for my granddaughter.
