I do all three as well but since getting my LA I haven't done any on my DSM but I would do smalls like table runners, placemats etc. I still want to try a QAYG as well.

Hand quilting takes me a very long time to do and I only do it for myself. On average it takes me 3 - 4 years to complete a HQ top. But I love to have handwork while watching TV so I will still HQ. I can get a lot of quilts quilted in a short period of time on the LA and I will LA for others, in fact the bulk of my LA work has been for others. Unlike many here, I do not have a huge backlog of tops. In fact I have no fully completed tops ready to go but am working on a couple right now.
