- sofa, chesterfield, couch, davenport, divan, settee, daybed -

Is it comfortable and is it long enough to stretch out on?

Back to the question of cost: Yes, the cost of long-arm quilting does hold me back from making really large quilts.

I made the mistake of offering to make a quilt for someone - and in my mind it was "couch quilt" size, but she wanted a king-sized one for their bed. Those beds are like football fields!

Now I've learned to be a lot more specific!
