Beautiful hand stitching, you were born to quilt!

I am a hand quilter and am simply amazed that you do one stitch at a time- in my quilting life I've only known one other person to do it that way.
Your talent is absolutely fantastic! :D

OH-thanks for the great photos. You have inspired me to try a wholecloth. They are so beautiful.

Always love seeing your work

You do lovely work and if a single stitch is what works for that is what you should do. I sometimes take single stitches but only when space makes me,or the fabric is thick near a seam. I'm not all that good doing it that way. Your way may take a long time but well worth the beauty you produce. Thanks for showing us.

Yes, I enter my quilts in shows. This year one of my quilts will be exhibited at the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham, UK (next weekend) and another one is entered in the World Quilt Show in Manchester, NH (August 18-21). I hope I can send quilts to more shows in the future, but the shipping overseas is so expensive (sigh....)
Normally I don't sell my work, but I have made several quilts in commission.

Beautiful work and thanks for all the information!

This is beautiful. I envy you. My hand sewing of anything leaves a lot to be desired.

I have watched the postings of your work with awe....I hand quilt but am in no way close to your work...thank you for the picture and the needle info...I am from Texas and go to Fla half of the time and hand quilting is my hobby, my favorite thing to do....much prefer to piecing the tops...do like to applique, but your work is amazing...thanks again...memepeggy

Sooooo, it is OK to make one stitch at a time!!! I can do that!! I just never could "load my needle" with more than 2-3. This makes me feel much better. Yours is just beautiful.
