I do all of mine myself, including my second quilt which was king sized on a cheap mechanical Brother with a small area for quilting. I just kept changing it's position. I like knowing that I am responsible for my quilts, from start to finish. Good or bad. I know there are reasons for sending out, and I appreciate all of them. And who knows, it could be that one day I'll do it too, but right now, I'm doing it all.
