Oh yes. Have been quilting since the late 70's. Made full bed sized sashed 9-patch, Tumbling Blocks, Rail Fence and many appliqued baby quilts, twin, full sized and some quilted garments and totes. Used homemade cardboard templates, wooden yardstick and pencil. Did the quilting by hand or just tacked the quilts. Got my first rotary cutter maybe 8 yrs ago and that was when I first tried machine quilting also. Felt like cheating at first. LOL. But it's oh so much more accurate!
