Question Doing your own LongArm Quilting at your local quilt store

There has been so much said of late about the wonderful Longarm Quilters, I was wondering how many of you have gone to your local quilt shop and taken lessons on how to longarm quilt and then rented time on the quilt shop machines and done your long arm quilting your self. Because I do not have the space for a longarm machine and not the money either for that matter.....was wondering IF you can learn enough from the 'quilt shop longarm teachers" to be able to do a decent job on your own quilt.....my other thought of course was if I ran into problems, there would be someone there to help with a machine problem and/or a quilt problem.....My additional question also is...in the long run was it really any less costly than having it done ???? Otherthan of course you would have the satisfaction on doing it your self....
