Welcome back! Nothing wrong with appreciating the mojo of others when real life gets in the way of our quilting, or when we just go in a bit of a slump.
Hope you find the solutions you need for finalizing projects. I got a (used) long arm, about a year ago now but had some bad life stuff get in the way and it is still not put together -- but it will be eventually. Some of my tops have already waited years for finishing, a few more won't hurt.
