Teal Nights

Finally, a new quilt. Have had this panel sitting around since last summer. Was always going to hand quilt it, but have finally come to the conclusion that hand quilting is next to impossible these days. So, found a neato stitch on my machine, and had way more fun doing that. And my fingers were not screaming by the end of  it.
     I will miss hand quilting. It is by  far the best way to finish off a quilt. But, it's either give up quilting all together, or enjoy the piecing and do it by machine and still get to quilt. I think I'd rather still make up some things by hand, but the smaller stuff. Nothing too overwhelming. Anything with Godzilla like tendencies will feel the wrath of the machine needle.Giving it all up would be so defeatest. How silly would that be? Especially since I have a wall of fabric staring at me, downstairs, in the dungeon. And all of that fabric is  saying: "Piece me, piece me"........who am I to deny that?
