I do my FMQ on a singer confidence and I do "good enough" for me. I usually only do SID or meandering or stimpling all of which I find fairly easy. I have yet to try "fancy" FMQ on a large quilt. On reason is that I like the FMQ to be secondary to the design/pattern of the fabric. Also FMQ on a large quilt is hard/struglle! Do not forget that since practicing on a 12" sample is EASY! It take a lot of "muscle" to push a large quilt thru the machine. The usual quilt size that I do is 80x100. Also be aware that your backing may not lay as smooth when quilting on your machine as when done on a longarm. All the above said I will continue to quilt my own tops on my machine since I can not afford a LA or to send them out to a LAQ. YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!!!!!
