Handing quilting lets you step away from your sewing machine.
You get to unplug and descend into the mind-cleansing joy of creating directly with your hands.
As with all things quilting, the right needles matter.
They reduce hand strain and produce better results.
At first glance, the styles and sizes of hand quilting needles can be a little overwhelming.
Which needle you choose will boil down to personal preference and the materials that you're working with.
