How terrific of you to show this! I am a hand quilter (so far) and have always quilted in a hoop. Someone gave me an antique quilting frame, and though I have no idea how to set it up, I am anxious to try it. Thanks for sharing!

When I was a young woman and went to the quilting bee at church, all they let me do was thread needles. I would thread needles constantly and give it to the women to quilt with, they knew I could not do the quilting on the frame. I tried once and it was too hard. Your quilt looks great, thanks for the tute.

Beautiful quilting. My stitches are not as small as yours. I haven't gotten that good at handquilting,

It is going to be beautiful when you get it finished. Please show pictures when you are done.

Your hand work is stunning. I tried to hand quilt once, but with the MS, I don't have the control or strength. Can't wait to see the finished quilt.

Thanks for this great tutorial. I have been wanting to try hand quilting and you have made it look like I might actually be able to do it.

quiltingstencils .com is an awesome site :thumbup: I've come to the conclusion that I am no free hand quilter. Not even meandering! I have decided to use stencils for EVERYTHING - and finally accomplish something that looks half way near decent. I'm so disgusted today, I shouldn't even be online :thumbdown: So I'll get off.
