Could a serger be used for FMQ of some form on such a quilt? That's my biggest concern since I don't know how I would quilt such a slippery material.
A serger isn't going to fmq, it is just going to make a finished seam. Unless of course there is a new serger that I don't know about, which is quite possible because I really don't keep up with all of the new machines available.
