I took a class so that I could use a LA with the computerized quilting to do a quilt for my sister for the birth of my new niece - Cat in the Hat - decided on before I knew it was a girl. That quilt is on big brother's bed, so now in the process of making another quilt for my niece. I have to admit, I am just addicted and it gave me an excuse to buy more fabric and a different template. I would love to get some sort of system, but can't afford the computerized systems that are out there. I have played with fmq with the LA at some shows and it seems much easier for me to move the machine than to move the fabric - I think they are just 2 different skills.
