So happy to find this channel . Hand quilting is becoming a lost art . Hopefully your videos will encourage others to try hand quilting , and not feel intimidated by the work . I have never machine quilted . I love hand quilting , so how long it takes doesn't matter to me , because I love doing it . I actually cut every piece with scissors , and hand sew each block as well . I find the entire process so relaxing . Looking forward to watching more of your videos . Subscribed :) Happy quilting folks
These two hand quilting videos helped a lot. I am working on a quilt that is a Civil War influenced design. It has an appliqued vase of flower in the center, so seeing how you quilted this has given me great encouragement. I appreciate all of the information on how you start and tie off the thread. Really great video!
Thank you! I hope to be able to make some more hand quilting videos soon. I sort of messed up my shoulder so I am having to rest it and have not been able to do any hand quilting for months ...anyway glad these helped!
Thank you so much. Hope to be half as good in 10 years. The tip about your finger pushing the needle back underneath exactly what I needed to get the hang of it. One again Thank you
I absolutely love this top! Can't wait to see what you do with it. I have a 17'' hoop that I use the most, it's resin and has a "non slip" groove in it. Miss my hand quilting, just have a hard time seeing it anymore with these eyes! I also love a hoop because I can position it in any direction to stitch which every way is more comfortable :) Quilt on, Tim!
It is a great top! It came from eBay.....there are still a lot of the great old beauties out there.......It feel for you about the eyes....I dont know that I would be able to handle it as well as you
Novice question - do you baste stitch the entire quilt or simply pin the 'sandwich' entirely before working in sections with the hoop? Grateful for the videos!
Tim, who taught you to quilt on a machine and by hand.? Your work is lovely! Thanks for the great tips and a friend is giving me a hoop, I'm excited to try to hand quilt!
