Not yet, thank goodness. I have done machine quilting, in fact one year when my husband lost his job, I quilted 25+ table runners for gifts because I had fabric and batting and we didn't have money for presents. For me I just didn't like the process. I love piecing by machine. If I ever had to give up handquilting and applique, I probably would send my quilting out to get done, as long as I could still machine piece.
And if worse came to worse, I would read more than I do now, which is a lot.
