It would be easier on a full size machine. If you are just piecing the quilt on the machine, then you just want to have support on the sides and back as you are sewing longer pieces together so that it doesn't pull and possibly break needles. You also want to clean the fuzzies out, frequently. If you want to stitch the whole quilt, it will not fit, My feeling is that you don't want a chain stitch for that anyway, I have seen moving pads quilted with chain stitch, but I would think that for a quilt, one doesn't want chain stitched quilting. I tried to make a mask with chain stitching and when I went to put it on, I pulled out the stitching.

I have used a variety of metal polishes. I really like Simichrome.Polish, but am having a hard time finding it locally. I did get some Flitz, but haven't tried it, yet. I have also used some Brasso. I haven't used anything, unless it is off the machine.
