    I have a short arm on a frame and do my own. One of my friends is a LA, and she did one recently for me to trade for me piecing a top for her.

    I am a handquilter and do it my own. If I wouldn't I could not call me a quilter - I do wholecloths!

    I bought an HQ 16 with money left me by my mother--her posthumous gift to me! I used to quilt on my DSM because I don't like relinquishing control. They are not perfect, but I can't be angry at anyone else, and I get to practice, practice practice

    The really good ones around here its a six month waiting list. theres a few that have just started out and the average is a month or more. I've sent out 4 to be done, but no more. Learning to do it myself.

    Used to hand quilt all mine but now learning to FMQ on DSM. Still not very good but I think it is so much fun and I am happy with them.

    I do my own on my domestic machine. Though to be fair I should say that I have sent one out to Charisma

    Always my own, always by hand. I get impatient with the piecing because I want to do the quilting!

    I quilt all mine by hand. That to me is the best part of making the quilt
