Thanks for all the great responses, certainly have me looking at our rig with new eyes! I really am coveting the sweet little white featherweight too, I have several vintage machines but no featherweight yet, I think I will move it to the top of the list! I found a video on layering a quilt by hanging it and I am going to check that out more closely since I think I can make that work really well. Thanks again...a few more trials and I may get it figured out yet...lol!
