    I admire your courage. I tried hand quilting a few times but my hands cramp too much. You might take a look at the thimble lady website for some great hand quilting tips. I have used her method and I can hand quilt a small wall hanging but that's about all.

    Isn't it wonderful to learn that traditional craft? I also teach hand quilting and it is great to see how the students do their first steps...
    Who is your teacher?
