I can appreciate this. I am SUCH a visual learner and can't always "see" things that are written.
There is a class on Crafsy Big quilts on a small machine, but it involves a lot more hand sewing than my carpal tunnel hands can handle. S
o instead I bought a machine with a larger harp/ throat (Brother PQ1500s). Of course, buying a new machine isn't always the answer... I love having the extra space, but I've only done a twin on it so far. I'm not sure I would want to do a king sized. My sister did a Queen on her Brother Project Runaway... It *can* be done, with lots of extra space for holding the quilt up and lots and lots of patience!
