Oh sweetie, there is nothing wrong with quilting quilts on a regular old sewing machine. I have a Singer Confidence and quilts California Kings on it. If you really need a new machine, youn can get one for just couple of hundred bucks, and not have to worry about such enormous investment right now. And you son wouldnot want you to spend that kind of money just to make him a quilt. Besides, spend all that money,,,,,and then nothing left for fabric!! Yikes!!! Can't have that!!

Thanks for all the replies, you all have been helpful, my husband is still looking on the computer for a cheaper one he thinks I should have a machine now, he spoils me. But I am going to look for a long time and try to find what I want cheaper, I am leary of used machines though. Thanks again, Happy New Year

You have seven quilts to practice on so I would rent time on a similar machine and see if you like it and what the learning curve will be. I know several people who have taken a lesson or two on my BIL's longarm and not returned when they found out how much work it is!! Good Luck.
