before the internet it was do as well as possible and learn from mistakes, then keep going forward. my first fmq on my domestic with 7 1/2" throat was a struggle. kept at it, developed ideas that worked. since then i've lost track of how many quilts, large and small, i've done on domestic machine. now we all have youtube ..almost as good as the books i taught myself to quilt from

Actually, you should not have a problem quilting a twin size on your domestic machine. I am doing a queen size one right now. That is a bit of a struggle. I approach the project in quadrants on the quilt except borders. That way I have less to manage. I do the borders as a fifth unit because I want them to appear without interruption. They are easy to handle because the rest is already quilted. I do think being organized is the key to success.

I've done a Full size and outlined it's Dresden...This thing is so heavy it sits because I won't use it due to weight so probably end up in a donation bin. I'll know better if there's a next time to just make a small wall hanging.
