“I have several quilt tops that need doing.”
If you’re stuck in a chair it would be hard to put together the quilt sandwich — the absolute worst part of quilting.
I know people who send the top, batting, and backing separately to a machine quilter who assembles the three and bastes the quilt. It’s nice and taut. Then you can hand quilt in a hoop on your lap, or machine quilt.
I am tempted to try that, but it’s not cheap. (I am cheap - LOL!)
I’m a purist. All my quilts are hand made and quilted. I have a few of my grandmothers. One has fabrics of my Daddy’s shirts. If I can get hubby to put my new Ott Lite, maybe I can do something.
LOL
Cheap? No, we’re economical!
