I'm right there with ya, MomtoBostonTerriers.

I have done it, but it is WORK! Not fun!

What I prefer to do for the rare times I machine quilt is to pick one of my decorative stitches on my machine or the meandering stitch and go down the seams with it. No SITD or stippling if I can avoid it! LOL

I have also used my embroidery machine and done embroidery designs in the center of blocks.

My #1 preference is to hand-quilt...but there are some utility quilts, kids' quilts or just plain quilts that need to get done in a hurry that lend themselves best to machine quilting.

Here is an example of where I did the decorative programmed stitch in the white strips and an embroidery pattern in the center where the blocks meet.
