I quilted my lone star that is on my bed on my little brother machine and it doesn't have much of a throat so it can't swallow much so I puddle it. You could quilt as you go. I saw an episode of a Georgia Bonesteel program on quilt as you go and I have done it on a Sun Bonnet Sue quilt a long time ago, but it is hard to do with a lone star. So I did stitch in the ditch on the star and did free motion quilting on the background and all of it done in my sardine can of a sewing room. LOL Have a great day, Huggies, Fay
