I had heard the 'staring at the needle' part, but it's always a good thing to hear repeated! I must try to get brave enough to start quilting my own quilts. Hand quilting takes so long and I'd really like to see the finished product in my own lifetime so I generally don't hand quilt. And it can get quite costly to send them out for quilting, especially since I piece so darned many of them each year. <BR/>I've been looking at the Brother 1500S for several years...might just have to invest in it soon.
