The Joy of Quilting By Hand




It really is so much fun! 
Gradually the quilting stitches replace the rough basting stitches (black thread) on my "windmill"-quilt, 
and I like to look at the reverse side, too! 
And yes, it takes some time to do this all over the quilt, 
but as long as my hands don't rebel 
(and yes, occasionally they do), 
I really love the look of hand made stitches, 
they give quilts an individual face and character, I do believe so. 


And yes, it IS a long way to go, but even so...! :-)
