I, too, know a lot of quilters that send their quilts out to be done. When I first started quilting I had my first ones quilted at a LQS but then one came back that I was terribly disappointed with so I have done my own ever since. I do smaller (twin, lap and crib) on my DSM and rent a longarm for larger quilts. I love FMQ and hope to have my own someday soon. Since I pay by the hour I just do an edge to edge design and then roll the quilt...
