just used the LA at my LQS and loved it. They pinned the quilt and all to the different roolers and set it up for me. I choose the pattern I wanted to follow with the pinpoint light and away I went. Not perfect put it looks great and I did it myself. Have appointments set up for 3 more quilts by Christmas. It was fun and you should take the class. My top was for a throw and it took me just over an hour to do it.
