Hand Quilting

Goodness me! Twelve months ago I blogged about constructing this quilt top.
Today I can happily report that I've started hand quilting it. I haven't hand quilted a quilt before, but I've been inspired by the likes of Andi and Annabel from Perle 8's.

Please keep your fingers crossed that it doesn't take me another 12 months to finish it!

I've hand quilted a couple of quilts and they didn't take me all that long. Definitely longer than it would to machine quilt but love the process of hand quilting! I did all sorts of fun designs and it looked wonderful! have fun with it!

Looking good Jo! I've been adding some hand quilting to the last couple of quilts I've made, but I have a queen size quilt on the go that I plan on doing the whole thing, I love the texture it creates!
