Thank you, I guess I'd have to see it being used. I don't do alot of hand quilting anymore> My HandiQuilter is quicker. When I got my first HQ, my DH said he couldn't sleep under a machine quilted quilt. I made him a quilt, put it on the bed without telling him. Next morning I asked him how he slept. "OK" he said, then I told him about the machine quilted quilt he had slept under. No comments since then. He loves all my quilts and doesn't like any of them to leave our house.
