I also quilt on a Sweet 16. Jamie Wallen, who does instructional videos, says you can't over oil.
I divide my quilts into quadrants, begin in the center of the quilt and quilt the lower right quadrant, working in a kind of diagonal back and forth. This keeps the bulk of the quilt to the top and left of me (I have a card table to the left of my machine). When I'm done with a quadrant, I rearrange the quilt, so I'm once again quilting the lower right quadrant in the same manner. Good luck with your new machine!!!
