    Thank you so much for making this!! I especially appreciate the focus on both of your hands working together. I have been sewing with a machine for years and just recently starting my hand sewing journey and no one mentioned that my hands should work together lol. I'm hoping to hand piece a log cabin quilt for my mom and this has been super helpful. Thank you!

    thank you for sharing your method! I handle the intersections the same way that you do. The first time I hand pieced, it seemed intuitive to me to reinforce the intersection that way. I think of it as "wrapping" the point at which the fabrics all come together. It makes for such perfect points!

Thanks so much for your time to teach us how to hand quilt. It really is a lost art. I look forward to more videos.

    My daughter's first quilt (8 x 10ish) top wouldn't lay flat and was abandoned to the back of a drawer. Twenty years later I "find" it. Using an IKEA poster frame and strips of mat boards, I labelled it "Study In Color".... She loves it... Yeah!

    I'm researching how to hand quilt before I get started and was wondering, Do you blanket stitch the seams of the pieces for the quilt? Thank you so much for any feedback.

  • @thequiltasylum

    No, I don't blanket stitch the seams. It's not necessary. With hand-stitched seams, I press the seams to one side. With machine-stitched seams, I press the seams open.

    I’m still confused after watching the intersections part.. Are you basically going back and forth through the same spot a few times? Is that what she calls making a loop? I love thé vidéo but i got kind of stuck on that part. and it’s what I need to improve.

    I've started to hand piece and I love it. Prefer it to machine piecing. Relaxing. I'm marking my seam lines but my blocks end up too small. I've heard a scant 1/4 inch seam will go a long way to solving my problem . Do u sew along the line or short of it .

    I do use knots when hand quilting. I "pop" the knot under the surface and bury it in the batting.
