My solution

My solution to this post, is to keep using #3, she's very talented, after all.  She quilted Ole's quilt, above. I'm also going to expand to other long arm quilters. The last time I was at my local quilt shop, I asked for some recommendations. The two women working were very thoughtful and recommended 3 others, including one that a fellow bookseller had recommended. I've been sewing up a storm, so right now I have 4 quilts out, one to #3, one to #4, and two to #5.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for the best.
