While I was in Tennessee, I visited at my friend Judy E's house. She proudly showed me her Gammill long-arm quilting machine. This isn't a great photo of the sewing machine (see it at the far left of the quilting frame), but it is a huge sewing machine which is on a movable frame (on ball bearings or something) so you can move it around really easily.
You put the quilt in the frame, then you move the machine all around over the quilt as you quilt it. This is WAY easier than the way I do it, which is to wad up the quilt and move it around under the sewing machine needle.
Maybe, just maybe, I might want to buy one of these someday. But the price makes me croak. (Judy's cost almost $17,000.)
