I don稚 think my life痴 problems would be solved with a mid arm but I am always so proud of my quilt tops and then they are essentially ruined by yucky quilting. Support and thoughts are very much welcome!!
I知 in the same boat but have done only a few quilts. One thing that helped me with the length problem was lowering the speed if you have a choice of settings for that. When you do that the speed won稚 exceed the setting even if you stomp on the peddle. It saves you from yourself. Start slow until you get better then try increasing the speed.
