Kathryn,

Thank you for this information.
I want to make a lap quilt by doing the quilting by hand.

Hi Kebbie   and Joyce, 
Tammy from Mitsy Kit has 1 fourth inch strips with a sticky backing that I
use for  Hand Quilting. You get a package of 10 or so for around .4 dollars.
I can not remember if it is under .4 but I think that it is. I have ordered
other  items at the same time,  I am not sure on the exact price , but I
know that it is under .4. You can re-use the strips  several times if you
put the peal off backing back on the strip. I  find them to be a great help.

Happy Quilting!
Kathryn

Thank you so much for the advice! I will have to research hand quilting a
little more and figure out what works best for me. I've never heard of
quilters tape but that is definitely something I will look into!
