Am I crazy? Is this too expensive? How many of you just do tops and then have someone else quilt it? I see Charismahs work and it always add tons of beauty to a lovingly made quilt...
I always send large quilts out to a long arm quilter. They do a GREAT job and then I can be proud when I give the quilts away.
