I've had a LA for almost 5 years and do quilting for others (only custom work now), but before I bought it, i used my domestic machine for quilting anything twin size and smaller and sent larger quilts out.
p.S. I help teach a beginner's class and we learn how to sandwich and do some type of walking foot type quilting on our 4 block table runner/wall hanging. some of the local LA'ers wish I didn't do that, but my thought is if we have to send out ALL projects out for quilting then we just don't quilt due to price and process of finding/working with our LA.
