There was a time when she was pumping out 20 quilts a year even with a full-time job. She's a nut.<br /><br />Love your quilt, it is beautiful. I've been meaning to do some myself, but haven't had the time. next year :)Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13263795936437012313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5172018271137170502.post-89525510308213209472010-11-12T10:19:19.981-06:002010-11-12T10:19:19.981-06:00I'm still going back and forth on whether to h...I'm still going back and forth on whether to hand or machine quilt it. I admit machine quilting would be so much faster! In fact, I met a machine quilter at that horrible craft show I was at and she lives within driving distance, so I'd probably go to her.

My hands are so bad, I decided to only hand quilt the quilts for you kids, like what I made you, that are heirloom type quilts - and machine quilt the rest. Not that I have been able to to any quilting at all for over two years...<br /><br />Nice job. What are you going to do with the quilt I made you, since you don't keep it on your bed? I hope you have it rolled and not folded, because where the folds are will weaken the embroidery.Momnoreply@blogger.com
