Still think it is possibly the best part of the whole 'making of a quilt' process.
Whether it is working with perle.
To give a more noticeable texture to the quilt.
Or just using regular quilting cotton.
The enjoyment is still the same.
Not exactly complete finishes I know, but linking up nonetheless to Amanda Jean's Finish It Up Friday

Both are amazing! I love working with traditional and perle cotton threads.

Beautiful! I was thinking of quilting with perle cotton but had a question. Can you still pop the knot through the backing like regular thread? How do you hide the knots?
Love your projects!
Ooh, I think I started drooling when I opened up this post! I've never been fond of the process of hand quilting (it makes my hands hurt! Though maybe I'm doing something wrong :), but seeing this really makes me want to give it a try sometime. That log cabin quilt looks amazing!!
I love both your quilts. I'm in the middle of hand quilting right now too, and I really love it. I love how a quilt seems softer when it's hand quilted.
Both projects are looking good!
I am going to be up early tomorrow to attach the binding to my Constellation so I can hand finish it over the weekend in front of the TV with the kids... that started out sounding like heaven then went a bit downhill!!
oh wow your first quilt is so amazing...the hand stitching makes me want to hand quilt something. it is beautiful.
Oh wow! That is all I can say, WOW!
Can I send you a heap of mine to do??
This is gorgeous, I love the solids and the hand quilting... wow!! Awesome!
Hand quilting is perfect for both quilts! I find it really relaxing and will one day get round to a big quilt rather than cushions :)
Too yummy not to I think! Adore what you are doing!
The hand quilting is beautiful. Love the texture that it gives.
I love hand quilting and don't have any to do at the moment - I'm really missing it! Love your quilts, stunning quilting and wonderful fabric/colour choices!
Wow, I love that green and grey quilt! I am catching up on reading and I am so glad to have finally made it here to see this, it is beautiful! And the big star is spectacular too.
Wow -- your quilting is great!
