If so , do you like it?<br>What made you decide to hand quilt it?<br>How do you find the time.<br><br><b>Thank you Betsy. It is a miniature, though the blocks are 6". Yep that is the new hoop, and I LOVE IT. I like the square shape a lot. And the thickness of the hoop is about 3/8" more than the plastic one I borrowed from a friend.<br><br>This is for my partner in the ALQS and she likes hand work and being a small project I figured I would take the dive into hand quilting. These little quilts are perfect for teaching and learning new techniques that I wouldn't try normally.<br><br>Time what time? :) Yesterday was hot and I wasn't working, so sitting and stitching was the best way to spend the day.</b>betsyhttp://quiltingfiesta.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33029276.post-63496384889855865272008-06-09T16:42:37.000-04:002008-06-09T16:42:37.000-04:00Beautiful fabrics in the ALQS quilt.
