Try the course, "Hand Quilting, Heirloom Design and Technique", the instructor is fantastic and makes it so easy to understand.

The colored thread allows one to appreciate the beautiful little stitches. Good job!

I used the coloured thread because I have very bad eye sight and it makes it easier to see my stitches.

Thanks, I purchased a hoop, but cannot get my stitches anywhere close to what they are supposed to be. I find it easier without the hoop.

You have moved right along! The motifs on this are quite a bit smaller than the class project. Great job!

Thanks for your comments. Thanks to you my goal is to do a complete whole cloth quilt. I will practice for the next year and then consider were I am and what I can do. Many thanks to you for the inspiration.
