Not sure where you are BW, but my machine is new (year old) and I got a free quilting foot with it, I havent used it yet, I might in the future but if you wanted to borrow it or anything let me know (depends how far away you are too)

my mum just bought a brand new (and very very expensive) sewing maching, but it does EVERYTHING. Even the dishes apparently. Shes only had it a month or something, so still working it all out, but if worse comes to worse im sure i can con her into quilting it all up for you, or atleast she would be able to give you tips/help on the easiest way to do it. If you look in my fb photos under 'wedding quilt' she made that all by hand (before she got her fancy machine)

ps that afgan is awesome too!!!! looks so cosy =)
