That IS a good explanation. I've been quilting for about 2 years now and love it. I've done lots of crafts over the years and find quilting far more relaxing for me. I haven't really had anyone to teach me, just jumped in and did it. I was explaining recently to my mother-in-law how I quilt (which is actually the same way that you do). She thought it was very strange. She goes from right to left. I can do it that way, but find that it puts my hand in a weird position, this way is much more comfortable for me. Thanks for the information.
