:D thanks --not much of a perfectionist inre my quilting either.( i tend to focus more on the "art" of my work rather than perfect technique--not sloppy, just not perfect!)
some of the people i've talked to seem to indicate that the quilter's cruise control regulates stitch length. for regular piecing, i do use a speed control (my juki can go way faster than i can). guess i'm going to have to go check out the quilter's cruise control at a friend's house to see it in action.
