Welcome! This group is for quilters who love to hand piece and applique. We want this to be your group, so please feel free to add pictures of your projects to the photos section & relevant links in the links section.

We love to discuss techniques, products and anything else quilting related, so please join the chat or start a new topic for discussion :)

Be sure to check out our Database, Files and Links sections for lots of great tips, links to free patterns, and other good stuff.

We challenge our members to spend at least 15 minutes per day on a handwork project. This is time just for us doing something we enjoy. And, to keep ourselves accountable to reaching our quilting goals, we encourage our members to post a weekly update on their projects. We'd love to have you join us :)

The photos we use on our home page are taken from our members' photo albums. We try to rotate them frequently to showcase as many projects as we can :)

CURRENT PHOTO: Dorothy made this adorable little quilt called Hooterville. Great job, Dorothy! ===============================================================
A note from Linda:
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Julia Dunn for agreeing to help me moderate this group. Julia is a very talented quilter, quilting teacher and pattern designer. She excels at both hand piecing and hand applique and I am very excited to have her as a resource for our group :)

Most of all: Welcome! We hope you love it here :)
Linda & Julia :)
