That is not cheating!!!!! When you work full time it is a major accomplishment just to get the top pieced. The lady I take my quilts to is an artist with a longarm. She is also very reasonably priced. I would never get a quilt finished if I didn't have someone else do the quilting. I don't show my quilts, I have given them all away. I figure when I retire I can start learning how to do the machine quilting. Until then I guess you can call me a piecer instead of a quilter.
