I occasionally quilt on my domestic machine, but then I have to throw away the quilt...not really! but that is not what I am best at. My dream is to have enough time to hand quilt more, and to have a longarm to machine quilt too.julieQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00509047751868460895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363339.post-8392415299488896392009-10-17T09:52:08.371-07:002009-10-17T09:52:08.371-07:00I love to hand quilt.

I am very, very slow.<br />I have sent gift quilts out to a talented machine quilter because I wanted them to be finished on the important day.<br />I have machine quilted straight lines on my quilts and then hand quilted other curved parts.Christine Threshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07472999420963274439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363339.post-24048319852966356312009-10-17T08:52:24.154-07:002009-10-17T08:52:24.154-07:00I like Joyce's idea of labels or buttons, or s...I like Joyce's idea of labels or buttons, or some kind of graphic that shows the methods. It could be easily inserted. I'd do it, but I don't have time these days to do the must-do's on my list.

I get confused too about who does what or what they specialize in or are trying new etc. I suppose the information could go in the ABOUT ME blurb too... Wouldn't it be neat if you started a united quilters/bloggers uniform sidebar or something?Tanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00858446371419879296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363339.post-25513391223631315882009-10-16T19:44:18.553-07:002009-10-16T19:44:18.553-07:00I have done all 3 types of quilting: sent some top...I have done all 3 types of quilting: sent some tops out, hand quilting and machine quilting. I love to hand quilt but it has to be the right quilt to do it. Lately I've been doing a lot of my own machine quilting on my DSM. I just put my quilting style in a label on the post.Paula, the quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17662592713610165406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363339.post-47048784505360917342009-10-16T17:22:53.181-07:002009-10-16T17:22:53.181-07:00I have always quilted my own quilts.

I have only hand quilted one. I loved doing it, but it took a long time and it is hot to hand quilt in Florida.Jocelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02714577523744715551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363339.post-50742214849388344552009-10-16T17:12:09.107-07:002009-10-16T17:12:09.107-07:00I do my own quilting, but hand and machine.I do my own quilting, but hand and machine.Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16992246515171206371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363339.post-24457939711087321442009-10-16T17:06:14.713-07:002009-10-16T17:06:14.713-07:00I never hand quilt and doubt that I ever will.

I have had one quilt done by a Longarm quilter and the others I have done on my machine. I actually LIKE doing that part of the process, I need practice but I think it is great fun.CJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12644905777364436470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363339.post-47191705820199855622009-10-16T16:59:56.200-07:002009-10-16T16:59:56.200-07:00The links only show on the home page.
