Another Passion: Quilting by Hand

I don't know what it is. I guess since second grade I've been proud of my accuracy in stitching. My art teacher even noticed how straight I could draw a line without a ruler. So when it comes time to do a little quilting, I prefer to use a needle and thread instead of a machine. I know it takes longer, but I am so much more satisfied with the result.

My latest project is a quilt that is made with two-sided squares which makes it immediately reversible and saves me from working with a bulky full sized top. I can carry the squares anywhere there's time to work on them, and the possibilities are endless. I just love it.
