Just what I need! A massive thank you! I am just about to thread baste a huge story book/photo quilt 100% hand sewn. I was debating whether to put it on a frame my husband made or do it as you have demonstrated. This is my first sewing project ever and I’m inexperienced. Took me 20 months to get here. I have loved the meditation as I sewed as I am a nurse in this very challenging time. I’m just going to do curvy big stitch quilting from right to left straight across so it should be easier. There are some of the pictures that I will accentuate and need to go round. Thank you also for showing the backside of your quilt as I was wondering about the different colours because my quilt is reversible with a “frozen theme” at the back. This video is giving me the confidence that I can do it. Thank you once again.😘 greetings from Australia.

Thank you for this! I am making a baby quilt for my baby boy due this winter. I machine stitched the quilt top together. but I am hand quilting it all together now. Although my stitches aren't perfect, I am having so much fun! I sew all my own clothes, but I never really thought I would get into quilting. Quilting is much different than sewing clothes; it is slower and satisfying in a different way. I am using hand quilting thread that is not as thick as I would like, but that is all I could find at the store. I did not think of using embroidery floss. I could try doubling up on the quilting thread I have.

I'm enjoying watching you do this. I do hand quilting too sometimes, and I have a pair of the smaller pvc hand frames, and a bigger one that measures 39x28 that is a small squarish floor frame. I also have a large wooden floor frame that I got almost 30 years ago. I've used the big frame and the small hand frames, but not the small floor frame yet. I found a thread conditioner called Thread Heaven and love it. It works for all types if thread, and I even use it for hand embroidery. I haven't tried hand quilting with the heavier stuff like you're using but planning to soon since I have a huge container of embroidery floss. Thank you for sharing this.

Hello Brenda. This is so fascinating to watch. Thank you for sharing your skills and knowledge here. I have a very large quilt top that my elderly aunt did by hand when she was learning to sew as a young girl. I so wish to finish quilting it by hand for myself since she is no longer with us. I note that you are using a Bingo table of sorts to support your work. I, too, have an awful time mastering hoops of any size. My natural tendency is to keep both hands free like you do when stitching anything. Can you explain the proper quilt sandwich and needles to use when I begin this challenge? Where is it best to start? From the center out or from end to end? I have difficulty with thimbles too and choose to feel the prick while stitching trying to be careful. Thanks for your suggestions.

Do you use a thimble on the hand hidden under the quilt? I don't think I could do that without one ...I'd be bleeding all over the underside if I didn't. 😆🤣

I don't have much luck wearing a thimble. I have tried to use one for the bottom as well as the top when my fingers are sore but I can quilt faster without any thimbles and I do build up a heavy callas. Thanks for watching and your comment!

hi! I’m looking to get into quilting because it’s something that my great grandmother and her foremother’s before her used to do, but it was never a skill that got passed down to me. May I ask why in hand quilting you might want to use a specific size or type of needle? I’ve found in my handsewing that I feel really comfortable using the smallest needle at my disposal, but I also know that there are a lot of gaps in my sewing knowledge as I’ve only been formally taught very little

Hello Ugly Peach 6272! I'm happy that you liked our video. You need to pick a needle that is comfortable because you may be holding that needle for quite some time.

Hi Brenda. This is my second comment on your channel. I’ve started my quilting as you’ve demonstrated and it is easier than I thought it would be. Just one question please. I have several photos on my reversible quilt, front and back though they are not back to back. They are 4.5x6 inches. I am doing big stitch quilting between them. Can you advise me on how to quilt the layers together without going through the photos please? Should I just go through two layers with the big stitch and then flip the quilt around after and quilt through two layers again? Not sure I’m making sense. Thank you.

Hi Brenda , Pat calling from nz. Thanks for your posts , very helpful . I am just contemplating doing a hand all over quilt . I am thinking of doing a white quilt for my grand daughter and was wondering if you have any comments about using silk thread ? I have heaps of it but no experience regarding it’s suitability , wearability or any other comments you may care to make . I have done three hand quilts already but never one where the quilting would be so obvious . The quilt will be white . Any input would be much appreciated.❤ 😮 cheers Xxp

Hello Pat! I'm thrilled that you like this video. Silk thread will work well for a white quilt so my advice is "Go for it because it will be beautiful"! I have used Silk thread with batiks and it sews like a dream with some thread conditioner like bees wax. The Facebook group is using the room feature in the group for impromptu sew dates. The February virtual sew date is on Feb 11, 2023 and starts at 9:00am to 5:00pm MST. If you are interested, please come. I hope you have an amazing week ahead.

Hello, I was looking for hand quilting instructions and found your channel. I have a question regarding the embroidery thread. I’m repairing an heirloom quilt and there is no embroidery thread used. What kind of thread do you recommend I should use?I had to repair and replace many squares. Old and new fabric makes it really difficult (old fabric has stretched and is torn with thin spots) but I’m now getting ready to attach the batting and the back of the quilt. I’m also thinking about purchasing one of those hoops. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
@conqueringmountscrapmorewi25095 ай бұрын
Hello EM-mi5yj! I'm delighted that you liked our video. I used embroidery thread because that is what I had on hand. If you want to do a big stitch, you could use either Perle 8 or 12 cotton thread. If you want to do a more traditional stitch, you could use a strong 50 weight thread (I would double the thread but most quilts only had one thread). My mom used a large hoop but I can't manage it well. I would suggest that you buy a quilting hoop that is larger than the block you are trying to quilt.
