I have not read all the replies so hope I am not restating what everyone else has already said. I tried the Flynn system at a quilt show. It was smooth and seemed like after some practice I would be able to get good. My biggest problem with this system and all systems using a regular domestic machine is every time you wind the quilt your quilting space get smallers. So you start with 6 - 10 inches depending on your machine and at the end of the quilt you may have 2 - 4 or 5 inches you can quilt. For me, it was very frustrating to have such little space at the end. You will have to remember this when chosing patterns so the pattern isn't bigger than the area you will be quilting.
