Have you tried handquilting? We are all in such a hurry but it allows you to have a family life or even socialize while quilting. I can handquilt and watch TV or socialize with family and friends and it can be totally portable depending on the size of the project. Supposedly handwork is good for the bloodpressure. I handquilt on monday mornings at our local senior center with a small group of ladies. We spend about 1 1/2 hours actually quilting and manage to produce a handquilted bed size quilt that the center raffles off each year to benefit their programs.
I always take a small handquilting project with me when I travel. It is a great conversation starter on a cruise or while waiting in travel lounges etc. The only thing I machine quilt is for the Linus Project and those are all single bed or smaller sizes.
