I am doing SITD and echo quilting on a 93" by 78" group QOV on my home machine right now and it is a big labor of love. <br /><br />If I had the cash I would have a long arm and sing and stitch doodle happily along on many quilts large and small. <br /><br />But I would still do straight line home machine quilting on some quilts. It just looks sew nice.<br /><br />Your quilt will be beautiful. Enjoy the process ... {{{hugs}}} PatScrapatcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11922866916373027618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777857214890559866.post-29113993286769453362014-04-20T04:15:50.903-07:002014-04-20T04:15:50.903-07:00Just a suggestion, check out a Flynn quilt frame. ...Just a suggestion, check out a Flynn quilt frame.

I am very familiar with sewing machine woes. I am also planning to save up for a more FMQ friendly machine. =)Cindihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04092998283379277460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777857214890559866.post-5342442891836943902014-04-19T11:03:11.423-07:002014-04-19T11:03:11.423-07:00OH NO!!!!!

Wrestling one that big through that little throat space can be agonizing...ask me how I know! Beautiful quilt, though, and straight lines will look wonderful -- and save your shoulders!Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345054871241809561noreply@blogger.com
