    Here is the latest pic of how far I have gotten with my Hand Quilting. This is my first stab at hand quilting... All I have left is the borders. I feel like I am in the home strech! :)

    It came as a kit with the templates for the handquilting design. The border is this swirly viney thing (not very good at explaining) and then when you put them together right it makes a heart in the red corner. I liked this little kit because it had everything but the thread and needle and was quick to sew together. And it had the designs for the quilting. I was able to just worry about my technique and not what I was going to do.
