    It's 54" by 66". I've been afraid to try machine quilting, but if I must risk ruining one, I guess this one would be it.

    At that size, you should be able to handle it on a domestic machine, even with little experience! Try it out on something small -- practice sandwich, placemat, potholder first -- to get the tension right.
