How many people hand quilt vs machine quilt?
#33
I've hand quilted, sent 2 quilts to Long arm quilters (that did a great job), and LOTS of my quilts I've done on my own Free motion, I guess I must say the quilt "Talks to me" and that's how I know what process to use - ya, I'm sort of crazy, but it works! :roll: :hunf: :lol:

I do hand quilt and regular sewing machine quilt also. I just got a handiquilter 2 about 6 monthes ago so I plan on doing some long arm quilting maybe within the next year. I am in the process of hunting for a regular sewing machine with a long arm. I hear the Juki98Q is a good machine.

I now only machine quilt, never hand pieced, afraid they would not hold up. I have hand quilted lots of quilts until I learned to FMQ and would not go back, hands could not take the abuse anymore. At 65 I am only into fast, can make one completely in 2 weeks at the most, trying to make lots of beautiful quilts and use up some of my fabrics. Fat chance but, I am trying.

I do both. I love to hand quilt and I also love learning to machine quilt. Each has their own place in my quilts. Some I will hand quilt and others machine quilt. It depends on the quilt and who will recieve it.
