Largest quilt you've quilted on your DSM
What is the largest quilt you've quilted on your DSM? Just curious.....I'm working on a 120 x 120 right now and I'm amazed that it is going so well.

I'm working on a 110 x 120 on a Brother 1500 with a 9 inch throat. I've done a 90 x 95 on a regular little Brother with a 4.5 inch throat. I think both projects are beyond my skill level and plan to go smaller on the next quilt.

I just did a 75 X 100 using a meandering pattern. I started in the middle and so it got progressively easier as I reached the edges. I was wishing I had a dedicated quilting machine when I was doing it. The quilt had flannel and corderoy in it and so it was rather thick. I used a cotton batting that required a max of 3" between quilting lines. It pleases me that I can make a quilt from start to finish.

roughly 120 x 120
on a Janome MC660P
the machine handled the job just fine, but it weighed about a ton!
my neck and back ache just remembering. LOL

Yes, I agree - It just wouldn't be "my" quilt if I "sent it out" for quilting. Although my stitching isn't the same as the stitching a LA can do, it is still OK and I feel like it is "my" quilt.
