The largest Quilt I've done on my 35 year old Bernina 830 was large queen size for my Granddaughter's wedding last summer.

I've quilted king size on my dsm.
|
I did two queens. It was difficult but I got them done and they looked good.
|
I have done several king size and queen size, as well as twins and baby quilts on my regular machine. Then my DH talked me into buying a longarm. Hurray!!

I have quilted a queen sized on my huskvarna. It is difficult, but it can be done. Don't let the size of a quilt scare you into not using your machine. Also if you accomplish this, then you'll be able to quilt full, twins, cribs as well as lap quilts.
I also agree with what Grammy Dwynn said. CruisingStef |
I've done a king size on mine. I would recommend starting with a crib size to start.
|
The largest was probably real close to a king. Quilted on my Juki TL98 QE. Not a big deal.
|
I am trying to do a large tablecloth now and I won't do any more
that large on a regular machine. |
You've got it - all my luck to you!! I just nearly finished machine quilting a full size and am happy to say it went like a dream!!
