I have the kit that attaches to my vacuum hose and I really like it. Easy to use and easy to store. My son bought it for me for Christmas, on Amazon, I think.

I pick and choose at Walmart. Some of the fabrics they have are very nice and I don't hesitate to use them. I noticed today that they have some Waverly for $3.97 a yard. (not quilting fabric though)

I'm all or nothing. It's neat as a pin or neck deep. I clean up and organize after I've finished a large project but sometimes have several going at once so things get away from me.

Great work! Beautiful quilt. My first Bargello was a sample size of a heart. The second was the same pattern in a king size for a wedding gift. Painstaking but feels so good when you're done!
