I quilt with my Husqvarna - and am getting ready to do a couple of king sized quilts for our bedroom. It can be done, but its a workout. I am going to try a quilt as you go for one of the king sized quilts, to see how it goes. I like that idea, as I can do different quilting designs in each block. I used to hand quilt, but don't have much time anymore. I will still occasionally do a fair amount of hand quilting on a baby quilt, though, as its relaxing. I don't see myself buying a long arm -- I'd rather do it like my ancestors did for the most part. Yes, I enjoy the mats and cutters, and my machines (I also have a Bernina that does embroidery, etc), but I'd rather do the quilting myself by hand or on my own machine.
