When I first learned to quilt, I took a quilting class and they taught me how to make my queen-sized log cabin quilt on a domestic machine. I will admit it was rather difficult; bulky, but came out beautiful.
Since I was just learning, all I did was the stitch in the ditch over the entire quilt, and then washed it when I was finished. It's awesome, I am glad I did it now!
Hold on to your money, it can be done, Go for it!!
