    Oh, My! It's beautiful & so very even are your stitches. You definitely have a knack for it. Don't give up!

    I've been hand quilting a long time and still do the stab stitch, the rocking method just doesn't produce the results I like. Great job and keep up te good work.

    I think you did great. You shoulkd see my first one. I rock with my left hand(the one holding the fabric). It is easier for me and I can't use a hoop or frame. I just lay it on a table and let the weight of the quilt help hold it taught.
