I seem to be into hand work right now. I put this quilt in the frame and have been working on it for the last couple days. I made this top as part of a class a while ago using some feed sack fabrics and other prints that I felt like they fit in with the group.
I am quilting around the V shape or partial boxes. The units are like card tricks only on it's side or in a row instead of in a square block. I marked the border with a chalk pencil and not sure that is working out well with my moving around on the swivel of the frame. I have a grace hoop frame on a stand and it is working out to quilt this perfectly other then I am rubbing off the lines I drew on the border. Oh well cannot have it all I guess.

What I do when quilting in a hoop or on my frame is mark the design as I go then it doesn't rub off. It looks nice and glad to see you are hand quilting!
